Fractal Dimension Computation in Python Code

>> Yes, the shadow explanation is approximate. A reference is Federer: Geometric Measure Theory.

> Can you tell me the page in Federer?  It's kind of a big book. When I was doing Calculus of Variations, it was a running joke with my advisor that any time you were too lazy to look up a reference, you could just cite Federer. :)


I must have met your advisor somewhere a long the way, because that was

is in his GMT and he was out of print for so many years, but he is in
reprint now and can be purchased.

A picture of the intuitive swiss-cheese/ shadow story you can tell about
the primitive form of the Hausdorff measure appears at the beginning of
Morgan's book Introduction to Geometric Measure Theory.
