What is the Mandelbrot function?

## A small manual

- Try starting erlang in distributed mode. The mandel program will use
  all connected nodes for mandel calculations!
- Resizing the window will restart the calculation.
- Press left mouse button to zoom.

`mandel:start(list of Option)` can be used to give the program different options.

Available options are:

- {xmax,float()}
- {ymax,float()}
- {range,float()}|
- {maxiter,integer()}
- {window,integer()}
- {zoomstep,float()}
- {hosts,(list of string())|all_found_nodes}
