Default Musa 'Trigonometric'

I spent the last few days updating my business logo. Of course I had to have a banana plant in it. For that I created:

Musa 'Trigonometric' -- available only in image format(!)

You know Richard, it would look much better using Gauss' Plain and Euler's constant. At least it would be easier to use, ay?

OK, I used a Gaussian distribution for the fruit in the passion fruit vine along the back and Euler's natural logarithm to compute the thickness of lines, but that was about it:

int boldings = (int) Math.floor(0.49 + Math.log((double) (sidemeasure * (double) 1.0)) / Math.log(16.0)) ;

Otherwise I calculated points on the outline by taking trigonometric steps:

int banana17thX = banana16thX + (int) Math.floor(0.49 + ((double) ((3 * offset20) / 2) * Math.sin(Math.toRadians(20)))) ;
int banana17thY = banana16thY + (int) Math.floor(0.49 + ((double) ((3 * offset20) / 2) * Math.cos(Math.toRadians(20)))) - (3 * boldings) ;

Impressive, but I meant more like Complex Calculus.
To make this picture virtually virtual.

Oh, but the rate of growth of shrubs in the foreground are computed from PDE's of ellipses in the Z-plane !

And since the positions of leaves, fruit, etc. are each computed from independent pseudo-random number generators: the picture is both virtual and irrational -- because no two generated images are identical!

Oh well. 2 + 2 = 10 base 4.

Yes, it could be some time though before a flag leaf emerges.
