RIP Benoit Mandelbrot

This entry was posted in RIP on October 16, 2010 by Ian Pattinson

The mathematician has died aged 85. Somewhere I have a photo of a Mandelbrot set rendered by my BBC B computer. I may have copied the program which did it, but I was proud of it. Somewhere I may still have a copy of Chaos, which introduced me to Mandelbrot’s theories.
