Hey fellas, Is it possible to create fractals in coldfusion? I don't see why not. I made Mandelbrot fractals in visual basic and Perl back in the day. They're implemented in python and php using the GD library. Has anyone attempted this in cf? Maybe @ben?

If there's a Java SDK you could probably drop it in and instantiate it that way? I'm not aware of any libraries specific to this use case but I love it and would love to see what you do with it! Maybe this could turn into a talk at one of our conferences... 🙂

Sounds like an idea!

This is interesting... I had to google fractals to see what it even was... but based on some examples I found in other languages, it seems like it would be possible to write cfml functions that use ImageDrawLine and other cfml image functions to generate a fractal image.
