Abstract

This paper describes fractal geometry, in particular Sierpinski fractals, their history, generation and applications. The generation of the Sierpinski triangle and Sierpinski tetrahedron using the Matplotlib library in Google Colaboratory is also explored, offering different ways to visualize these fractals through iterative processes and animations.
