About Fractals
The Mandelbrot set is a famous fractal defined by the iteration z → z² + c, where c is a complex number. Points that don't escape to infinity are part of the set.
Julia sets use the same formula but with a fixed c value and varying starting points. Each c value produces a unique Julia set with its own intricate patterns.
These fractals exhibit infinite complexity - no matter how far you zoom in, you'll always find new details and patterns, including miniature copies of the whole set.
Tips & Tricks
- •Increase iterations for deeper zooms to reveal more detail
- •Try different color schemes to highlight different features
- •Animate Julia set parameters to see how the fractal morphs
- •Look for miniature Mandelbrot sets (minibrots) when zooming
- •The boundary of the set is where the most interesting patterns appear
