DEF+&+DESC

Assignment:
 * Very good, but the definition and the description have to be about the same topic ** [[image:sorciere.gif]]

1) 5 definitions

1a. Combinatorics b. The science that studies the numbers of different combinations c.groupings of numbers

2a. Cube b. A prims c. six square faces

3a. Elapsed time b. A period of time that has passed c.usually between a given starting time and ending time

4a. Graph b. A visual representation of data that displays the relationship among variables c.cast along x and y axes

5a. Line b. A continuous extent of length c. containing two or more points

2) Addition: Is the sum of numbers that in the end gives a total.

3) A __**fractal**__ has been defined as " //__a rough or fragmented geometric shape that can be split into parts__, each of which is (at least approximately) __a reduced-size copy of the whole__," [|[1] ] a property called self-similarity //. Roots of the idea of fractals go back to the 17th century, while mathematically rigorous treatment of fractals can be traced back to functions studied by Karl Weierstrass, Georg Cantor and Felix Hausdorff a century later in studying functions that were continuous but not differentiable ; however, the term// fractal // was coined by Benoît Mandelbrot in 1975 and was derived from the Latin // frāctus // meaning " broken " or " fractured ." A mathematical fractal is based on an equation that undergoes iteration , a form of feedback based on recursion .  [|[2] ] There are several examples of fractals, which are defined as portraying exact self-similarity, quasi self-similarity, or statistical self-similarity. While fractals are a mathematical construct, they are found in nature, which has led to their inclusion in artwork. They are useful in medicine, soil mechanics, seismology , and technical analysis.

3a. Fractal -A rough or fragmented geometric shape that can be split into parts - that can be split into parts

3b. The description was easy to found because it holds the most important information which is the definition of the term.

4.Symmetry: the size, length, weight... all the characteristic in an object are equal in al their sides.
