General remarks

So, I’ve just learned how to use knitr, and this small project is just testing it out. You can check the R markdown files which produced the GIFs at the end (or here’s the first, the second and the third, since you’re in a hurry).

Besides producing the images it also creates a cool report in html format.

To compile the .Rmd file you’ll just have to type in your favorite shell (assuming you’re on GNU/Linux):

  R -e "rmarkdown::render('Fractals2.Rmd')"
