Hello Jesus: I have seen myriad examples "hang" V6. Some I have debugged, many others have not had my attention yet. I changed the code above to this: Clear[JuliaTest]; JuliaTest[x_, y_, n_, c_] := Module[{z, num = 0}, z = x + y I; While[Abs[z] < 2.0 && num < n, z = z^2 + c; num++]; num ] Then this: DensityPlot[ JuliaTest[x, y, 50, -0.75 + 0.5 I], {x, 1.24, 1.27}, {y, -0.13, -0.1}, PlotPoints -> 50, Mesh -> False, ColorFunction -> Hue] Then the "Julia Set" is shown. I did not check much to see why the old code does not work. Note that I removed Complile[]. HTH Regards..Roger W. On Nov 27, 3:07 am, "Jesus M.
