Using matrices to make fractals We start with a triangle ABC, with coordinates 𝐴(0,0) , 𝐵(1,0) , 𝐶( 0,1) as shown above. We can this triangle F_0 and we then write this as the following matrix: We then have the following algorithm to generate the next triangle F_1. In effect this means that the triangle...

I made it by modifying the code previously used to plot the Barnsley Fern. You can run the code I used on repl.it. What we are seeing is the result of 30,000 iterations of a simple...
