I didn't come across complex numbers again until I saw the Mandelbrot set for the first time. |
What about the scone, or the biscotti, or the lowly mandelbrot? |
For this reason I have done without anecdotes, cartoons, exclamation marks, jokey chapter titles, or pictures of the Mandelbrot set. |
The Mandelbrot set is beautiful even if it is the monochromatic blot in the middle of the colorful depiction of equipotential lines. |
The exterior of the Mandelbrot set consists of points for which certain iterations diverge. |
In 1980, Mandelbrot has discovered the set M of parameter values c for which Julia sets are connected. |
