Here’s the picture of the first published picture of the Mandelbrot set.
Use the fewest bytes possible to write a program or function that outputs the following.
A trailing new line is permitted. Character *
cannot be replaced by any other character.
Useful information: Center is \$(-0.75, 0)\$, \$\Delta x = 0.035\$, and \$\Delta y = 1.66\Delta x\$. Iteration count is 250.
