             three times and so on. Values less than 1, non-integer values, \
             negative values, imaginary values etc. will produce strange \
             results, not that results aren't strange anyway - in \
             particular when self-rotation is applied the chance of \

Parameters:

pparent - the parent, generally "this" for the parent, or zero

MMF_SelfRotation

public MMF_SelfRotation()

Method Detail

Iterate

public complex Iterate(complex pz)

Description copied from class: Transform

Transform a single point within a sequence

After a sequence has been set up with Init(), this function will be called once for each value in the sequence. Note that all values in the sequence must be processed in order (they cannot be processed out of order). If the sequence contains only one value, Init() will still be called and then Iterate() will be called just once.

Overrides:

Iterate in class Transform

Parameters:

pz - the complex value to be transformed

Returns:

the transformed value
