   Julia fractal day!
  According to google it''s julia fractal day 
  And according to the 3rd picture I clicked (the cool 3D looking one), Google has generated enough traffic to take down their site.  How considerate of Google.cyn ;  Welcome to 6 hours ago. Just kidding. Fractals are kewl. ;  Interesting... my comp sci teacher mentioned something about that this morning... Julia Fractal day? never heard of it.   Yes... VB6 is here to steal your minds. Very slowly. ;  It''s the 111th anniversary of Gaston Julia''s death, the man who discovered the Julia set, as in the Google image above.  I think I got his name right, anyway. ;  111th anniversary of his death? But wasn''t he the guy who lost his nose in WWI? ;  The one on the G is not a julia set, its the mandelbrot set, the formula for it is above the second o, Zn+1 = Zn2 + E.

So is the l. The point is that each point in the mandelbrot fractal represents a julia fractal. ;quote:Original post by Jesper T   The one on the G is not a julia set, its the mandelbrot set, the formula for it is above the second o, Zn+1 = Zn2 + E.Yay! recursive!So...Julia to me sounds like a name of a woman...did you guys just say it's a man?
