Julia set generator
Render Julia sets in your browser by iterating z → z² + c for a fixed complex parameter c. Each pixel is a starting point coloured by how fast it escapes to infinity. Try famous values — the Douady rabbit, San Marco dragon, dendrite — tune the iterations and palette, and zoom in.

Frequently asked questions
What is Julia set generator?
Render Julia sets in your browser by iterating z → z² + c for a fixed complex parameter c. Each pixel is a starting point coloured by how fast it escapes to infinity. Try famous values — the Douady rabbit, San Marco dragon, dendrite — tune the iterations and palette, and zoom in.
What does a concrete case look like?
c = −0,4 + 0,6i — the tool shows every step in between, not just the final figure.
When would I actually use this?
Homework and site work alike: how much paint a wall takes, how much water a tank holds, whether a corner is square — and, on the coordinate side, the slope between two points, the distance across a plan, the midpoint of a span.
What is the most common mistake?
Mixing units inside one shape. Entering a length in centimetres and a width in metres gives an area wrong by a factor of a hundred, and the result looks perfectly plausible.
How is Julia set generator different from Mandelbrot set explorer?
They sit next to each other but answer different questions: Mandelbrot set explorer is the one to open when you need it to explore the Mandelbrot set, the most famous fractal, rendered live in your browser. Each pixel is a complex number c; it iterates z → z² + c from zero and is coloured by how fast it escapes — black where it stays bounded. Pan by editing the centre, zoom in for the infinite detail of its boundary. Pick whichever matches what you're starting from — both are free.
Is there a tool for the next step?
Set theory calculator is the closest one after this: Compute every core set operation at once from two, three or four sets: union, intersection, both differences, symmetric difference, complement, Cartesian product and power set. It also checks subset, equality and disjointness, and reports all the cardinalities — numbers, letters or words all work.
Where do the figures come from?
The formulas are the classical ones and the results are exact to the precision shown — geometry does not change with the year or the country, so nothing here needs updating.
