Fractal geometry. Computer graphics image derived from the Julia Set,a class of shapes plotted from complex number coordinates. Each point is assigned a colour depending upon its behaviour under a series of simple,but repeated,mathematical operations or mappings. The Julia Set was invented and studied during World War I by the French mathematicians Gaston Julia and Pierre Fatou. The better-known Mandelbrot Set arose as a result of attempts,made by the mathematician Benoit Mandelbrot in the 1970's,to rationalise the massive variety of forms of the Julia Set | |
