To whom it may concern: I am trying to figure out how to create a fractal patter for a Mandelbrot set of numbers using a recursive algorithm. The assignment says that I must create and escape time algorithm by treating the screen as a graph, stretching from x=-2 to 2 and for y respectively. This determines whether the pixel on the screen belongs to the Mandelbrot set. I do not know where to start for this, but so far I have defined all variables I need (x,y,x0,y0,XSIZE, and YSIZE). I have tried a couple functions for the escape pattern, but none of them work. I have more details about the assignment if anyone is interested. Thanks.
