In the previous post we discussed the Mandelbrot set. There is another beautiful algebraic fractal, called Julia set 𝓙. It is named after the French mathematician Gaston Julia, who has discovered. It is obtained by the same formula as the Mandelbrot Set: zn+1 = zn2 + c The difference is that z0 = x +Continue reading “How to plot the Julia Set”

Plotting the Mandelbrot Set
Calcpad has an interesting and undocumented feature, that I am going to reveal in this post. You can use it to quickly plot the Mandelbrot set. This is a set of complex numbers c, for which the iterative equation zn+1 = zn2 + c does not go to infinity. The most beautiful part is thatContinue reading “Plotting the Mandelbrot Set”
