A problem that was partially solved by Bob Hanlon in a post a while back on color in IFS. The Wellin type IFS in Mathematica or the McClure digraph method are both black and white. I do a lot of work on IFS fractals of different types. I found a dreadfully slow Do loop code that maybe someone can speed up. I put a color privative in a point array, so that the point comes out having color. I make a "data structure" of color and Point. I found the starting Mathematica code at Dr. Frame's ( the Mandelbrot course at Yale) web pages. Mathematica: (* from Symbol Driven IFS - Four Bins : Dr. Frame - Yale *) Off[General::spell]; Off[General::spell1]; (* Random table on {1, 2, 3, 4}*) dlst = Table[Random[Integer, {1, 4}], {n, 10000}]; Length[dlst] (* paste the data between the {} in dlst = {}, comma separated numbers, 1 through 4 *) (*Sierpinski space fill in four squares*) f[1, x_, y_] := {0.5*x, 0.5*y} f[2, x_, y_] := {0.5*x + 0.5, 0.5*y} f[3, x_, y_] := {0.5*x, 0.5*y + 0.5} f[4, x_, y_] := {0.5*x + 0.5, 0.5*y + 0.5} ptlst = {PointSize[.01]}; pt = {0.5, 0.5}; (* color privative assignment function*) cr[n_] := If[n - 1 == 0, RGBColor[0, 0, 1], If[n - 2 == 0, RGBColor[0, 1, 0], If[n - 3 == 0, RGBColor[1, 0, 0], RGBColor[0, 0, 0]]]]; (* color, Point structure Do loop iterated: instead of the Nest usually used in the Wellin code*) Do[{x = pt[[1]], y = pt[[2]], pt[[1]] = f[dlst[[j]], x, y][[1]], pt[[2]] = f[dlst[[j]], x, y][[2]], ptlst = Flatten[{ptlst, cr[dlst[[j]]], Point[pt]}]}, {j, 1, Length[dlst]}] Show[Graphics[ptlst], AspectRatio -> Automatic, PlotRange -> All]
