- In a broad sense, our tree is the expression of two simple rules: (1) branches grow, and
255
- (2) branches branch. In tuning your tree, you might notice that slight
256
- changes in the rules can produce profound changes in the final result when the rules are
257
- applied recursively. In this regard, you and the sakura are the same.

+ Our tree is the expression of two simple rules: (1) branches grow, and (2)
255
+ branches branch. It's a [ fractal] ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fractal ) —an
256
+ image that contains instances of itself. In tuning your tree, you might notice
257
+ that since the rules are applied recursively, slight changes in the rules can

+ Our tree represents a recursive structure as a collection of objects.
262
+ You might be interested in other ways of representing fractals, such as
263
+ [ Lindenmayer systems] ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/L-system ) and
264
+ [ iterated function systems] ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iterated_function_system ) .
