Mandelbrot Lab

A larger, sharper Mandelbrot explorer with live math readouts. Scroll or click to zoom at the cursor, drag to pan, and watch the complex plane stats update as you move.

z_{n+1} = z_n^2 + c z0 = 0, escape radius = 2
Outside if |z| exceeds 2 before max iterations. Smooth coloring uses fractional escape time for gradients.
