One word is obvious CAN @amWhy

I was wondering if HANK is a word

A hank is a bunch of yarn.

Q: Why are the formal and informal definitions of fractals equivalent?

A fractal is usually defined to be a self-similar shape (this is the informal definition). But, the formal definition is: A fractal is a set for which the Hausdorff dimension strictly exceeds the topological dimension (formal definition). Before proceeding to the question, I will tell what this...

definition fractals hausdorff-dimension

@LeonhardEuler This is not the right place for your question. Note that the topic of this room is "A place to socialize, have fun, share humor and war stories, and more."

This is a social room, not a math room.

Means no math? @XanderHenderson

Xander Henderson

@LeonhardEuler We usually don't discuss mathematics here, no.

Euler talks only math :P

@XanderHenderson why were you removed from list of room owners?

Xander Henderson

12:43 PM

@LeonhardEuler No idea. I did not realize that I was on the list of owners.
