set another point. A line of points formed, and all the possible answers to that equation were on that line. Simple.
Colene had quickly gone beyond that, and used squares of X and Y to get curved lines. X2 + Y2 = Z? made a perfect circle with a radius of Z. Sine waves were trickier. But a complex equation was something else.
She had been fascinated by the new concept of fractals, which were like fractional dimensions. They enabled a person to take a simple figure and elaborate it infinitely, without taking up any more space. For example, one could start with an equilateral triangle, every angle and every side the same, then put a little triangle in the middle of each side, so that it became a six-pointed star:
Then smaller triangles could be added on the twelve sides of that outline, an
