Hey guys, so I just started using Houdini in August because I am enrolled in a Houdini class. I am working on a project doing variations of Mandelbulbs. I followed along with a tutorial for the original formula and the cubic formula to translate it into a VEX expression.

I am trying to figure out how to convert the quintic formula into code to put into the VEXpression on my Volume Wrangle node but I am having some trouble figuring out how to do it myself and was hoping someone could help me out.

Here is the link to the wiki page that has the formulas.

I don't know the math behind that but this tut covered it:
