The Best Fractal Zoomer for the TI-Nspire

by Ta-180m, Apr 12, 2019, 1:11 PM

This fractal zoomer for the TI-Nspire CX outshines any other fractal zoomer. It utilizes the 320x240 color LCD screen to provide a meticulous level of detail. This fractal zoomer supports the Mandelbrot set, the Julia set, and even your own custom fractal function! The rendering is relatively fast, at least for a calculator, and the program supports eight colorings and various other settings to provide a unique experience unrivaled by practically any other fractal zoomer. Perhaps the only downside may be the unresponsive cursor of the TI-Nspire, but that’s the hardware’s fault. Fortunately, no Ndless is required!

Design: 9/10
Nice graphics!

Functionality: 10/10
Tons of configuration settings to mess around with!

Practicality: 9/10
A great source of entertainment during math class

Performance: 8/10
Even though the rendering is quite fast, it can’t compete with a computer

Overall: 9/10
Probably the best fractal zoomer on any calculator!

  • And they can't make Ndless because they don't have OS 5.0 running on emulator

    by Ta-180m, Oct 16, 2019, 7:24 PM

  • The main problem is that the Ndless devs can't boot OS 5.0/5.1 on emulator because they need Ndless to get boot images

  • Unfortunately, there's not been too much progress...

    by Ta-180m, Oct 16, 2019, 7:22 PM

  • Hey guys, someone has news about the Ndless development for the 5.0/5.1 OS (nspire cx II)?

  • @bobcat1337 there are some programs out there that can let you view PDFs on your Nspire. They require Ndless and one such is nPDF (http://www.omnimaga.org/ti-nspire-projects/npdf-a-document-viewer-for-the-nspire/)
