Fractal

Fractal (noun) is a complex repeating geometric pattern that has irregular shapes divided into parts.  A fractal has infinite detail, is self-similar and independent of scale.  Huh?  The mathematical concept of the word is not easy to define and is difficult to understand.  It may be easier to understand the word through illustrations of art and nature.

Examples of fractal in nature are snowflakes, certain plants, seashells, lightening and the peacock. Look for fractals today; they are unique and special and a treat to behold.
