FRACTAL

What is a fractal? Generally "a rough or fragmented geometric shape that can be split into parts, each of which is (at least approximately) a reduced-size copy of the whole,"

We have not yet learned much about fractals but what they can look like, and how to make one.

An example of a fractal can be like this…






An example of one you can make would be as follows...


The blue would be your first box. Then you would make the purple ones which are a reduced size of the first. Then you'd make the green boxes which would be a reduced size of the purple. This can almost go on for infinity, however the size will eventually get to small to be significant or too small to see. We would eventually have to stop because of that factor.



The next scribe is Carmel
