Desmos was founded by Eli Luberoff, a math and physics double major from Yale University, [3] and was launched as a startup at TechCrunch 's Disrupt New York conference in 2011. [4] As of September 2012, it had received around 1 million US dollars of funding from Kapor Capital, Learn Capital, Kindler Capital, Elm Street Ventures and Google ...
Box plot of data from the Michelson experiment. In descriptive statistics, a box plot or boxplot is a method for demonstrating graphically the locality, spread and skewness groups of numerical data through their quartiles. [1] In addition to the box on a box plot, there can be lines (which are called whiskers) extending from the box indicating ...
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.
Burning Ship fractal. Detail of the Burning Ship fractal. The Burning Ship fractal, first described and created by Michael Michelitsch and Otto E. Rössler in 1992, is generated by iterating the function: in the complex plane which will either escape or remain bounded. The difference between this calculation and that for the Mandelbrot set is ...
Escape time algorithm. 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 first Feigenbaum constant or simply Feigenbaum constant[5] δ is the limiting ratio of each bifurcation interval to the next between every period doubling, of a one- parameter map. where f (x) is a function parameterized by the bifurcation parameter a. It is given by the limit: [6]
In mathematics, a Multibrot set is the set of values in the complex plane whose absolute value remains below some finite value throughout iterations by a member of the general monic univariate polynomial family of recursions. [1][2][3] The name is a portmanteau of multiple and Mandelbrot set. The same can be applied to the Julia set, this being ...
In mathematics, the term chaos game originally referred to a method of creating a fractal, using a polygon and an initial point selected at random inside it. [1][2] The fractal is created by iteratively creating a sequence of points, starting with the initial random point, in which each point in the sequence is a given fraction of the distance ...
