In Fractint's "Deep Zoom" arbitrary-precision, all numbers become

Oh, and
install XFractint and have it do a deep zoom somewhere into the
Mandelbrot set.
try MDZ - mandelbrot deep zoom, it uses the MPFR math library to go
beyond long-double precision to as deep as you have patience for. by
default for some peculiar reason it also uses 64 threads. makes the
system very unresponsive i promise.
