flow of strange bees

1996

History 01-Nov-2000: Allocation checks
28-Jan-1998: This change catches 'lost' bees in flow.c and disables them.
I chose to disable them rather than reinitialise them because
reinitialising can produce fake attractors.
This has allowed me to relax some of the parameters and initial
conditions slightly to catch some of the more extreme cases. As a
result you may see some bees fly away at the start - these are the ones
that 'missed' the attractor. If the bee with the camera should fly
away the mode will restart :-)
31-Nov-1998: [TDA] Added Duffing (what a strange day that was :) DAB)
Duffing's forced oscillator has been added to the formula list and
the parameters section has been updated to display it in Poincare'
section.
30-Nov-1998: [TDA] Added travelling perspective option
A more exciting point-of-view has been added to all autonomous flows.
This views the flow as seen by a particle moving with the flow. In the
metaphor of the original code, I've attached a camera to one of the
trained bees!
30-Nov-1998: [TDA] Much code cleanup.
09-Apr-1997: [TDA] Ported to xlockmore-4
