Parameters:

pparent - the parent, generally "this" for the parent, or zero

MMF_SwitchStandard

public MMF_SwitchStandard()

Method Detail

Iterate

public complex Iterate(complex pz)

Description copied from class: Formula

Produce the next value in the sequence

As long as the sequence has not bailed out, this function will be continually called to produce sequence values.

Overrides:

Iterate in class Formula

Parameters:

pz - previous value in the sequence; corresponds to #z in a fractal formula. Note that you should always use this value for computing the next iteration, rather than a saved value, as the calling code may modify the returned value before passing it back to the next Iterate() call.

Returns:

the next value in the sequence
