Cantor Set
Characteristic: Constructed by repeatedly deleting the middle third of a line segment. Dimension: Approximately 0.630.
Mandelbrot Set
Characteristic: Complex structure at any scale. Dimension: Fractal (non-integer) dimension, approximately 2.0.
Sierpinski Triangle
Characteristic: Triangular shape with smaller triangles removed. Dimension: Approximately 1.585.
Julia Set
