Dynamic Systems

Basically fractal types Julia or Mandel are dynamic systems, too. So this fractal type should be named continuous dynamic system in contrast to iterative dynamic systems like Julia sets, Mandelbrot sets, Lyapunov spaces, Bifurcation diagrams etc.

An iterative dynamic system is obtained by calculating f(x), f(f(x)), f(f(f(x))), ... whereas a continuous dynamic system is a fractal consisting of a continuous curve, mostly obtained by solving a differential equation.
