Many people are fascinated by the beautiful images called fractals. Expanding beyond the typical perception of mathematics as a body of complicated, boring formulas, fractal geometry blends art with mathematics to demonstrate that equations are more than just a collection of numbers. What makes fractals even more interesting is that they are the best existing mathematical descriptions of many natural forms. The concept of “fractals” has become increasingly popular, although it first appeared more than two centuries ago, with a prominent and prolific mathematician and philosopher Gottfried Wilhelm Leibnitz. Leibnitz is believed to have first addressed the notion of self-symmetry or self-similarity, but it was not until 1960 that the…
