The simplest algorithm for generating a representation of the Mandelbrot set is known as the "escape time" algorithm. A repeating calculation is performed for each x, y point in the plot area and based on the behavior of that calculation, a color is chosen for that pixel.
The Mandelbrot set within a continuously colored environment. The Mandelbrot set (/ ˈ m æ n d əl b r oʊ t,-b r ɒ t /) [1] [2] is a two-dimensional set with a relatively simple definition that exhibits great complexity, especially as it is magnified.
Mandelbrot set rendered using a combination of cross and point shaped orbit traps. In mathematics, an orbit trap is a method of colouring fractal images based upon how close an iterative function, used to create the fractal, approaches a geometric shape, called a "trap". Typical traps are points, lines, circles, flower shapes and even raster ...

Misiurewicz points in the context of the Mandelbrot set can be classified based on several criteria. One such criterion is the number of external rays that converge on such a point. [4] Branch points, which can divide the Mandelbrot set into two or more sub-regions, have three or more external arguments (or angles). Non-branch points have ...

An external ray is a curve that runs from infinity toward a Julia or Mandelbrot set. [1] Although this curve is only rarely a half-line (ray) it is called a ray because it is an image of a ray. External rays are used in complex analysis , particularly in complex dynamics and geometric function theory .
Mandelbrot used quadratic formulas described by the French mathematician Gaston Julia. [14] The maximum fractal dimension that can be produced varies according to type and is sometimes limited according to the method implemented. There are numerous coloring methods that can be applied. One of earliest was the escape time algorithm. [14]
