Compute the fractal curve based on the following L system
Moore curve, 4 steps
Axiom: XFX+F+XFX
Production rules:
Newx=-YF+XFX+FYNewy=+
XF-YFY-FX+
Constants: α= π/2; θ=π/2
The following is my answer for Moore curve.But I know it's not a right curve, Because the picture is not same as what I have seen on wikipedia. I really don't know where am I go wrong. May anyone help me to slove this please? Many thanks for helping!!!
function [X,Y]=Moore_curve(Lmax)
Axiom='XFX+F+XFX';
Newf='F';
Newx='-YF+XFX+FY';
Newy='+XF-YFY-FX+';
theta=pi/2;
alpha=pi/2;
p=[0;0];
p=Coord(p,Lmax,Axiom,Newf,Newx,Newy,alpha,theta);
M=size(p,2);
X=p(1:1,1:M);
Y=p(2:2,1:M);
figure(1);
plot(X,Y,'Color','k');
set(gca,'xtick',[],'ytick',[]);
set(gca,'XColor','w','YColor','w');
function z=Coord(p,Lmax,Axiom,Newf,Newx,Newy,alpha,theta)
Rule=Moore_syst(Lmax,Axiom,Newf,Newx,Newy,1,'');
M=length(Rule);
for i=1:M
Tmp=p(1:2,size(p,2):size(p,2));
if Rule(i)=='F'
R=[cos(alpha);sin(alpha)];
R=R/(2^Lmax);
Tmp=Tmp+R;
p=cat(2,p,Tmp);
end
if Rule(i)=='+'
alpha=alpha+theta;
end
if Rule(i)=='-'
alpha=alpha-theta;
end;
end
z=p;
function z1=Moore_syst(Lmax,Axiom,Newf,Newx,Newy,n,tmp)
if n<=Lmax
if n==1
tmp=Axiom;
end
M=length(tmp);
tmp1='';
for i=1:M
if tmp(i)=='F'
tmp1=strcat(tmp1,Newf);
end
if tmp(i)=='X'
tmp1=strcat(tmp1,Newx);
end
if tmp(i)=='Y'
tmp1=strcat(tmp1,Newy);
end
if not(tmp(i)=='F') &&not(tmp(i)=='X') &&not(tmp(i)=='Y')
tmp1=strcat(tmp1,tmp(i));
end
end
tmp=tmp1;
n=n+1;
tmp=Moore_syst(Lmax,Axiom,Newf,Newx,Newy,n,tmp);
end
z1=tmp;

At the end of line 4 is a minus sign missing. It's apparently already missing in the task description... That's it.
Hope it's not too late.
