Fractal geometry: computer graphics representation of a detail from the Mandelbrot Set,plotted from complex number coordinates. A number is described as complex when it is made up of two parts,historically called real and imaginary. The Mandelbrot set,named after Benoit B. Mandelbrot,is a form of fractal geometry,the mathematical study of forms having a fractional dimension. The small black regions across the image are tiny representations of the original Mandelbrot Set pattern. Fractal patterns demonstrate order and presence of pattern in apparently highly irregular systems. For example,fractals have been applied to model coastlines | |
