Hi all,

I was looking at Jim's .par files for the last four days to try to see why two out of the four days, the FOTD did not generate properly on my Linux computer. The only difference I see, is that the days it didn't generate correctly, Jim used the 'cos' function. (Aug. 2 & Aug. 4) Strangely enough, the 'cosxx' function that Jim used Aug. 3rd, did work correctly. And this is the function that Jim says has an error in it! (The Aug. 1 .par file generated correctly, but Jim used the 'atanh' function that day.)

So it's possible that the 'cos' function is broke in Xfractint....

I doubt that this is so. If it were, none of the Mystic2 images would generate correctly. A 'cos' function is hard-coded into the fifth line of the formula. Jim M.
