I was very impressed taking a look at their projects, how they came up with their ideas and explaining the math behind all of it. The one that we found most interesting was the fractal carpets. In class, we were given the code for this fractal in OpenSCAD, but we could edit and create our own using that code. Seeing all of the different variations of the carpets was very interesting and most of them looked different than one another.\u00a0<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-2790\" src=\"https:\/\/geekhaus.com\/math103_fall2017\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/IMG_0558.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"3024\" height=\"4032\" srcset=\"https:\/\/geekhaus.com\/math103_fall2017\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/IMG_0558.jpg 3024w, https:\/\/geekhaus.com\/math103_fall2017\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/IMG_0558-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/geekhaus.com\/math103_fall2017\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/IMG_0558-768x1024.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 3024px) 100vw, 3024px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>We both had such a great experience at the showcase explaining our project, how we came up with it and giving out cake to classmates, students and professors!
