Thread: Mandelbrot Set

Start with any complex number, z.
1. Square z, and add that result to z.
2. Square the result from step 1, and add it to z.
3. Square the result from step 2, and add it to z.

If z=2-i , what is the result after performing the first 3 iterations?

The instructions are straightforward. What have you tried? Where are you stuck?
