Ruby Fractal Library 1.2.2

Posted by Ryan Baxter Tue, 09 Mar 2010 04:34:00 GMT

The Ruby Fractal Library now uses ChunkyPNG. Thanks to Willem van Bergen for creating a 100% pure Ruby PNG solution! ChunkyPNG provides full read/write capabilities of PNG files without the dependency hassle of bigger image libraries. Install fractals and enjoy the chunky goodness.

sudo gem install fractals

Oh, and check out this post at Implements Developer for another great way to create the Mandelbrot Set in Ruby.

Now it is high time to rewrite the whole stuff in C to get some pretty running time.
