Even if we choose a function that is completely symmetric at 
The regular iterations at both fixed points dont coincide. They have the difference:
Details: If we have a function
that is symmetric at the y-Axis then we can make a function
out of it, which is symmetric at the straight line
by the following procedure:
.
This roughly corresponds to rotating the function graph by 45 degrees anticlockwise. The property of being symmetric at
can be expressed by
. Directly translated it means mirror the function at the y-Axis then mirror it at
(function inversion) and then mirror it at the x-Axis. The result of these three mirrorings is a mirroring at
and this should not change anything. With some arithmetic you can indeed verify that
.
The current graph resulted from letting
and presents
with the fixed points -1 and 1.
