Detailed Description

This class is what generates our random art.

It takes in a time increment, the depth of the random expression to generate, and a seed number. From calling nextImage() one is able to get the next image step in the 2d random art animation.

Art::Art ( float  timeIncr, int  genDepth, uint32  num  )

Member Function Documentation

Expr * Art::build	(	int	depth,
		G3D::Random &	randomGenerator
	)

Called to create a random expression.

This is a recursive method call where depth determines how many more recursive expansions we will use.

shared_ptr< Art > Art::create ( float  timeIncr, int  genDepth, uint32  num  )

static

time increment is how fast we step through the different art frames of the randomly generated 2d art animation.

genDepth is related to the generation of the random function. Check the Expr class for more details on how the random math function is created/represented and the Art::build() on how depth is used

shared_ptr< Image > Art::doRandomGray ( float  step )

protected

shared_ptr< Image > Art::nextImage

(

)

Get the next random art image.

float Art::toReal ( int  i, int  N  )

protected

Scales our inputs to be less than 1.

The behavior of the trigonometric functions in our random math expression is less desirable as input > 1.
