Fractal Folds Lab Procedure
Fat Cantor Set
This is a variation on the Cantor Middle Thirds Set,
altering the lengths of the middle segments removed.
The first middle cut is 1/4 the length of the long side of the paper.
The second middle cuts are 1/4 the length of the first cut,
hence 1/16 the length of the paper.
The third middle cuts are 1/4 the length of the second cuts,
hence 1/64 the length of the paper.
In princple, continue forever. In practice, three is likely the limit of
physical cuts.
This is a model of the fat Cantor set.
