RE: Complex Number problem



Mind the fact your function Julia has no return value, or do you wish to
use "amounts" as returned value? Also mind the fact a general rule
affects capital letters to built-in functions.

You can use:
julia[x_, n_] := NestList[#^2&, x, n]

Hi.

I tried the following function to generate the Julia for a certain
point.

Julia[x_,n_]:={amounts={x}
  For[i=1,i<=n,i++,x=x^2;AppendTo[amounts,x];];}

But Mathematica always answers with tha same message:
  Set ::  write :  Tag Complex in x+y I is Protected.

How can I set this tag to unprotected?

ciao
