Iterative Map

An iterative map is a process that applies a specific rule repeatedly to change a number or set of numbers over multiple steps. Think of it like a recipe: you start with an initial value, then follow the rule to get the next value, and repeat this process many times. Over iterations, the values can settle into patterns, cycles, or even become chaotic, revealing interesting behaviors. This concept helps us understand complex systems like weather, populations, or financial markets by modeling how small, repeated changes can lead to big, often unpredictable outcomes.
