High-Precision Deep Zoom

Animations

ThirdOrder

This is a very short and simple non-deep zoom into the cubic Mandelbrot set. This set is more demanding computationally because it requires the cube of a complex number to be calculated at each step, which requires twice as many multiplications as calculating the square of a complex number.

There will be more of these coming.
