🐍 The Dragon Curve

The dragon curve, or Heighway dragon, is a fractal built from a very simple rule: keep folding a strip of paper the same way, then unfold it at right angles.

With each iteration, the line gets longer and more detailed, yet the whole shape stays inside a finite area.

The result is a self-similar pattern that curls around itself like a stylized dragon or a jagged coastline.
