Essay content:
Meteorologist Edward Lorenz tried to model climate in a series of equations during the 1960s. In doing so, he produced a chaotic system of three related differential equations, now known as a Lorenz attractor, or strange attractor. Through his models he discovered the sensitivity of chaotic systems to initial conditions, which he phrased in the question "Does the flap of a butterfly's wings in Brazil set off a tornado in Texas?"
The Lorenz attractor is an example of a fractal, a pattern produced by applying a function repeatedly, much like pushing a button on a calculator over and over... displayed 300 characters
