Mandelbrot^3--Mandelbrot^6
==========================

This fractal is a simple modification of the standard :ref:`Mandelbrot set
<mandel>` formula, using z=z^3+c instead of z=z^2+c.

Other derivations of the Mandelbrot set (Mandelbrot^4 and so on) use even
higher powers. See the :tutor:`tutorial chapter <power.xaf>`.

**Available as**: menu item, command line option
