L'algorithme de compression fractale permet la modélisation interactive par collage d'images. L'algorithme d'itération aléatoire calcule la courbe de Sierpinski. Les courbes obtenues avec l'algorithme déterministe convergent vers une courbe de remplissage de l'espace. 3, record 1, French, - algorithme%20fractal
