interactive web application built with Elm, designed to help users explore and visualize L-systems
the following characters are used with specific geometric interpretations to define the L-system rules:
| Character | Meaning |
|---|---|
| F | Move forward by line length drawing a line |
| f | Move forward by line length without drawing a line |
| + | Turn left by turning angle |
| - | Turn right by turning angle |
| | | Reverse direction (i.e., turn by 180 degrees) |
| [ | Push current drawing state onto stack |
| ] | Pop current drawing state from the stack |
| # | Increment the line width by line width increment |
| ! | Decrement the line width by line width increment |
| @ | Draw a dot with line width radius |
| { | Open a polygon |
| } | Close a polygon and fill it with fill color |
| > | Multiply the line length by the line length scale factor |
| < | Divide the line length by the line length scale factor |
| & | Swap the meaning of + and - |
| ( | Decrement turning angle by turning angle increment |
| ) | Increment turning angle by turning angle increment |
These symbols allow users to create a wide range of L-system rules and customize the generated fractals to their liking.
