A fractal is a complex, never-ending pattern that is self-similar across different scales. This means that if you zoom in on any part of the pattern, you'll see a smaller version of the whole. They are generated by repeating a simple iterative process, which leads to intricate details and infinite complexity. Fractals are not just mathematical curiosities; they are found throughout nature in forms like snowflakes, coastlines, lightning bolts, and the branching of trees.
On this site, you can dive into two of the most famous examples of fractals, the Julia Set and the Mandelbrot Set. These visual representations of complex numbers reveal stunning, chaotic beauty born from simple rules.
