Mandelbrot Set Explorer

These pages are designed to help students and teachers understand the mathematical ideas behind the beautiful geometric fractal images known as the Mandelbrot and Julia sets. Included are a series of interactive explorations that will help you discover the meaning of such topics as Julia Set Explosions, Rotation Numbers, Bifurcations, and much more. You can use this site as a companion to the book called "The Mandelbrot and Julia Sets: A Toolkit of Dynamics Activities" or you can use it as a stand-alone tool for exploring the incredible mathematics behind these images.
