AI Thread Summary
The discussion revolves around the dimensions of a specific cellular fractal generated using life32 and rule V:s01234/b13. A broken link initially shared led to confusion, but a new image link was provided for reference. The dimension of the fractal can be estimated using the equation N=CrD, where N represents the number of replication units, C is a constant, r is the sampling circle's radius, and D is the fractal dimension. For this fractal, a threefold increase in radius results in an approximate dimension of 1.46. The conversation highlights the mathematical approach to understanding fractal dimensions.

Erm... the link is broken for me.
 
john conway's game if I am not mistaken.
 
The page you are looking for has spontaneously combusted.
Actually, we couldn't find the page you requested. Please check the URL

--EDIT-- Ok its wierd..sometimes its broken..but it just worked for me..here..I uploaded it to my account..Voila

The dimension of this fractal may be estimated by using the equation N=CrD, where N=number of fundamental units of replication, C is a constant, r is the radius of a "sampling circle," and D is the dimension of the fractal. For this fractal, a factor of three radii increases the fundamental units bounded by the circle by approximately five, yielding N=5=3D, and a dimension of approximately 1.46. (Scientific American.)

Thread 'Video on imaginary numbers and some queries'

Hi, I was watching the following video. I found some points confusing. Could you please help me to understand the gaps? Thanks, in advance! Question 1: Around 4:22, the video says the following. So for those mathematicians, negative numbers didn't exist. You could subtract, that is find the difference between two positive quantities, but you couldn't have a negative answer or negative coefficients. Mathematicians were so averse to negative numbers that there was no single quadratic...

Thread 'What Exactly is Dirac’s Delta Function? - Insight'

Insights auto threads is broken atm, so I'm manually creating these for new Insight articles. In Dirac’s Principles of Quantum Mechanics published in 1930 he introduced a “convenient notation” he referred to as a “delta function” which he treated as a continuum analog to the discrete Kronecker delta. The Kronecker delta is simply the indexed components of the identity operator in matrix algebra Source: https://www.physicsforums.com/insights/what-exactly-is-diracs-delta-function/ by...

Thread 'Unit Circle Double Angle Derivations'

Thread 'Unit Circle Double Angle Derivations'

Here I made a terrible mistake of assuming this to be an equilateral triangle and set 2sinx=1 => x=pi/6. Although this did derive the double angle formulas it also led into a terrible mess trying to find all the combinations of sides. I must have been tired and just assumed 6x=180 and 2sinx=1. By that time, I was so mindset that I nearly scolded a person for even saying 90-x. I wonder if this is a case of biased observation that seeks to dis credit me like Jesus of Nazareth since in reality...
