; 6502 assembler Sierpinsky Triangle ver.2
; by Magnus Wedmark 2007-05-02
; This program is especially written for
; the 6502asm.com competition and 
; uses the 32*32 pixel display used in that
; virtual platform. The sierpinsky 
; fractal is one of the simplest to
; implement. Here is a walk-through:
; 1) Specify 3 points that form a triangle
; 2) Choose one of them as a starting point
; 3) Choose one of them as targetpoint randomly
; 4) Set the new current position half-way 
;    between the current point and the target 
;    point.
; 5) Goto 3
