I am trying to generate fractals via transformations. This involves methods used by Hilbert, Peano, and Mandelbrot, among others. I am not sure if Mathematica can do this, but it was mentioned in a computer graphics book. I think it falls under the topic of Geometric Grammars, but I am not sure. What I want to do is make plane-filling curves, but if I can just find out how to do simple stuff like a Cantor set or a Serpinski gasket, that would be enough to start with. Is this possible? Max
