Title: Image of David Hilbert with a Hilbert curve Post by: lkmitch on May 10, 2013, 05:37:21 PM This isn't my image, but I thought it deserved recognition. It's a Hilbert curve tweaked in such a way to produce an image of its namesake, mathematician David Hilbert.

I'm off to inspect further to see if the line has a start and finish or if it is a continuous loop. Laters... Edit: I found the ends of the line, at bottom left and bottom right, but my filling in of what was on the inside and outside didn't look as good as I thought it would. Oh well! |
