Subject: [SLUG] Mandelbrot Set - the song

Jonathn Coulton is a somewhat unique singer/song writer...
He has a song about code monkeys [2] and apparently one about the mandelbrot
set! [1]

*/
Just take a point called Z in the complex plane Let Z1 be Z squared plus C
And Z2 is Z1 squared plus C And Z3 is Z2 squared plus C and so on If the
series of Z's should always stay Close to Z and never trend away That point
is in the Mandelbrot Set */

Interesting methinks.

Oh, and (most of) his music is available under a creative commons license.
