{{w|Chaos game|The Chaos Game}} is a method of generating a fractal by repeatedly applying randomly-chosen {{w|Transformation_(function)|transformation functions}} to a point and plotting the position of the new point each time. The transformation functions are randomly chosen from a small, predefined list. The surprising result of this is that, even though the functions are picked randomly, a distinctly non-random fractal image emerges. The exact nature of this image depends on the list of transformation functions used. | {{w|Chaos game|The Chaos Game}} is a method of generating a fractal by repeatedly applying randomly-chosen {{w|Transformation_(function)|transformation functions}} to a point and plotting the position of the new point each time.
