Original Blog Entry: Chaos Game (Sierpinski Triangle Formation) using past mega lottery data as the random seed

Appears that the mega lottery draws give rise to formation to Sierpinski Triangle Fractal

Using IFS iterative deterministic algorithm and 5, 10 and 100 iterations, application started to produce the attractor see my home page in ref. 1

Contours and shapes of the triangles are becoming to form at various densities. Its these densities that are of interest and further study.

In this particular run, 5 x 100 past mega lottery numbers form the seed to choose from 3 vertices ( n = p Modulus (remainder) 3, where p is a lottery number, and n yields random vertix)

Triangle Formation after 100 mega lottery draws (between 06/17/2008 and 06/05/2009)
