:: That page is simply wrong. This sunflower picture is not a fractal.
::: In colloquial usage, "fractal" is often taken to mean merely "self-similar", whereas more rigorous usage might also speak of its Hausdorff dimension. Clearly the logarithmic curve is self-similar (zoom the origin to any scale and it looks "same"), but it never gets any more "detailed" - still just a one-dimensional (topologically) line at any scale. (contrast that with what happens when you zoom the Mandelbrot set or a Hilbert curve) '''But''', the ''real'' problem here is that the task is insufficiently described ''anyway'' - containing only a link to a long-dead page that not even the wayback machine has a copy of.
