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 became prominent in the mid-1980s as a computer-graphics demo, when personal computers became powerful enough to plot and display the set in high resolution. [ 11 ] The work of Douady and Hubbard occurred during an increase in interest in complex dynamics and abstract mathematics , [ 12 ] and the study of the Mandelbrot set ...
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 ...
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 ...
Plotting algorithms for the Mandelbrot set, perhaps. XOR'easter ( talk ) 19:48, 11 February 2020 (UTC) Well, I've broken out the "Computer drawings" section into a new article in my sandbox, and I've modified the original Mandelbrot set article to include a brief summary of the escape time algorithm with a link ( eg.
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]

Logarithmic spiral (pitch 10°) A section of the Mandelbrot set following a logarithmic spiral. A logarithmic spiral, equiangular spiral, or growth spiral is a self-similar spiral curve that often appears in nature. The first to describe a logarithmic spiral was Albrecht Dürer (1525) who called it an "eternal line" ("ewige Linie").
