To draw a straight line from any point to any other. 2. To produce a finite straight line continuously in a straight line. 3. To describe a circle with any centre and distance. 4. That all right angles are equal to each other. </p><p>5. That, if a straight line falling on two straight lines make the interior angles on the same side less than two right angles, if produced indefinitely, meet on that side on which are the angles less than the two right angles. </p><p>History </p><p>Euclid ~ "formless" patterns Mandlebrot's Fractals </p><p>"Pathological" "gallery of monsters" </p><p>In 1875: </p><p>Continuous non-differentiable functions, ie no tangent </p><p>La Femme Au Miroir 1920 Leger, Fernand </p><p>Initial Monsters </p><p>1878 Cantor's set </p><p>1890 Peano's space filling curves </p><p>Initial Monsters </p><p>1906 Koch curve </p><p>1960 Sierpinski's triangle </p><p>Details </p><p>Fractals : </p><p>are self similar </p><p>fractal dimension </p><p>A square may be broken into N^2 self-similar pieces, each with magnification factor N </p><p>Details </p><p>Effective dimension </p><p>Mandlebrot: " ... a notion that <em>should not </em>be defined precisely.
