Fractal
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A fractal is generally "a rough or fragmented geometric shape
that can be subdivided in parts, each of which is (at least
approximately) a reduced-size copy of the whole,"[1]
a property called self-similarity. The term was coined by Benoît Mandelbrot in 1975 and was
derived from the Latin fractus meaning "broken" or
"fractured".
