Sierpinski's polygons
Instructions:
This applet draws n polygons. Each polygon has smaller polygons drawn in its corners. You can specify m number of steps, that are drawn.
Description:
This fractals were named after the Polish mathematician Waclaw Sierpinski who described some of theirs interesting properties in 1916. The most famous is Sierpinski Triangle that can be generated using different algorithms: chaotic IFS Algorithm or deterministic algorithm based on Pascal Triangle. Here is presented a different way to generate Sierpinski's fractals. Figure is divided into n parts. In each part is drawn a smaller figure. You can follow this proces by choosing step 1 and increasing step using '+' button.
The better figure can be seen if we remove long segments.
