The Mandelbrot Set is a mathematical abstraction of quite dazzling beauty and
intricacy. From a simple computer program (with sufficient time!) it is possible
to generate patterns which embody some of the subtler aspects of natural forms
and offer some complex puzzles in pure Mathematics.

To understand the Mandelbrot Set one first requires an elementary knowledge of
complex numbers but they can also be enjoyed for their own sake.
