Default Snowflakes?

It always amazes me how they say that no two snowflakes are exactly the
same. They obviously have verified this by checking every one that has
fallen from the sky, that would be ludicrous, however, I feel it must be
based on some mathematical theory. This has similarities to a calculation
I did at GCSE Biology which showed why no two people look alike, was to do
with genotypes and chromosomes IIRC.

Anyone have more of an idea than I seem to have !?

Cheers, Joe



I would say that snowflake patterns could be seen from a fractal program.
