The Koch Snowflake is a Fractal Curve that was First Described by Helge von Koch in 1904. The Sequence of Koch Curves Begins with a Triangle and Continuously Replaces Each Side with a New Side Featuring an Added Triangle. This OpenSCAD Code Utilizes Functions from a Larger Tiling Library Based on the Use of Perimeter Descriptions in the Form of {Sidelength, Angle} and Turtle Geometry to Generate the Corresponding Polygon. Due to Recursion Limits, We are Restricted to Order 4 Curves but Since These have 768 Sides and Order 5 has 3092 Sides (3 * 4^N), This is Probably High Enough for Printing or Laser Cutting. The Code Can be Modified to Generate Other Fractal Curves. For Example, Replacing the Koch Side Perimeter [240,60,240,60] with [120,300,120,60] Yields the Koch Antisnowflake.
