That is, for a fractal described by formula_9 when formula_13 a non-integer dimension that suggests the fractal has a dimension not equal to the space it resides in. The scaling used in this example is the same scaling of the Koch curve and snowflake. Of note, the images shown are not true fractals because the scaling described by the value of formula_3 cannot continue infinitely for the simple reason that the images only exist to the point of their smallest component, a pixel. The theoretical pattern that the digital images represent, however, has no discrete pixel-like pieces, but rather is composed of an infinite number of infinitely scaled segments joined at different angles and does indeed have a fractal dimension of 1.2619.
