Summary[edit]
| Description |
Four iterations of a "box fractal" or "Vicsek fractal", derived by iteratively replacing a square with a saltire or cross of five smaller squares on a 3-by-3 subgrid. Top: Four iterations of the saltire form of the fractal. Bottom: Four iterations of the cross form of the fractal. The second iteration is a form of the "cross crosslet" symbol of traditional heraldry. |
