Why Mandelbrot?
CHAPTER 1 - The "Secret Sauce"
What is a function? How does "Recursion" work? How does Mandelbrot create his magic? Let us look closer and see if we have the eye
to recognize The Secret Sauce.
Chapter 2 - Complex Variables
Complex Variables is the second video, in a six-part series of videos; answering the question: Why Mandelbrot?
Chapter 3 - The Algorithm
Third video in a series of 6 videos belonging to the series "Why Mandelbrot?"
The video comes with a FREE Software Program, written in C++, which allows the novice to create their own Mandelbrot Baby.
It also provides the capability to dive-deep into the beautiful fractals which surround the baby.
DOWNLOAD THE PROGRAM -- DIRECTLY BELOW.
Mandelbrot Generator in written in source C++ Code
This C++ Program generates Mandelbrot Babies and allows for deep dives into fractals. Instruction for installation & operation of this code is contained in Chapter 3 of this video series, entitled "The Algorithm", this software is a free product; offered with no guarantees and no acceptance of liability. One needs to participate in the Chapter 3 video, prior to operating this downloaded software package.
This C++ code is intended for instructional purposes only and is considered a training aid - to teach you how to generate a Mandelbrot Baby and to zoom-in on areas of interest.
This series of videos is designed for the Mandelbrot enthusiast or for anyone wanting to learn more. Good to start with Chapter 1 - but this Chapter is stand-alone and I believe you will not only enjoy these brief 23 minutes, but you will be passing it on to your friends.
Chapter 5 - The Dimensions
The "Why Mandelbrot?" video series has arrived at the heart of Mandelbrot's favorite pasttime: which is discussing fractal coastlines and their roughness in the context of Dimensions.
Prepare yourself for non-integer dimensions; not 1-D or 2-D; but 1.4-D. Chapter 5 explores Scaling Factors, Box Counting, Linear Regression, 3D Complex Plane, Mandelbrot Siblings, and a special visit to the MandelFash Fractal Log. You will really enjoy this visit into other dimensions.
