Sweet Cherries

EPS 109 Final Project:An Attempt at Fractal PlantsNatalie MezakiSweet CherriesThe MethodGoals:Create a plant that showed fractal like self similarity Make that plant beautiful The Code:Two different scripts a function that draws the arms (branches and flowers) and shortens/rotates them as it iterates (modified twice for different colors and the other trees)Uses two rotation matrices to angle the branches, tries to color every other branch drawn a different colorThe main script which draws the stems, sets the background, and calls the plantarms functionThe Outcome:Original idea for the angles of the branches proved difficult to get right, so I decided to lengthen the stems into tree trunks and try to make something aesthetically pleasing but still reminiscent of a fractal plant
