Watch this: Snowflake Creation in Python

Animated Visualization

Watch the animated visualization of the Koch Snowflake construction. To make it we only need some basic math and Python programming skills.

The Algorithm

Start with an equilateral triangle and repeat the following:

• divide the line into three equal parts
• remove the line in the middle
• draw an equilateral triangle above the removed middle part

Make it your own

Here, you can find the open-source code of the algorithm and the animation. If you like this kind of animations you can subscribe to my mailing list to receive more.

If you have any questions post them in the comments below, I would be happy to discuss it with you.
