Koch Snowflake
The Koch Snowflake fractal is, like the Koch curve one of the first fractals to be described.
Basically the Koch Snowflake are just three Koch curves combined to a regular triangle. The construction rules are the same as the ones of the Koch curve.
Mathematical aspects:
Because the Koch Snowflake just contains three Koch curves the perimeter and the number of parts can be calculated by calculating it from one of the used Koch curves and multiplied by three.
