How does the Fractal Dimension Calculator work?

Fractal dimension D = log(N) / log(S) where N = number of similar parts, S = scale factor Then: Examples: Cantor set D = log(2)/log(3) ≈ 0.631; Sierpinski triangle D = log(3)/log(2) ≈ 1.585 Then: Non-integer dimension indicates fractal nature Then: Higher D = rougher, more complex.

Can you give an example of how to use the Fractal Dimension Calculator?

Example: Input Sierpinski triangle gives a result of D=1.585.
