9.) Find the following fractals: Sierpinksi's Triangle, Mandelbrot set, and a Julia set.

These are two examples of the fractal known as Sierpinski's Triangle, named after Waclaw Sierpinski, the Polish mathematician who introduced it in 1916.

These are two examples of the Mandelbrot fractal, named after Benoit Mandelbrot, a Polish-born mathematician as well, who first published it in 1975.

These are two examples of a Julia set, named after Gaston Maurice Julia, an Algerian-born mathematician, who introduced it around the 1920s.
