EDA Python - 25_Barnsley_Fern

The video tutorial explains how to generate the Barnsley Fern using Python. It covers the concept of fractals and transformations, demonstrating how to apply transformations in 2D space to create patterns. The tutorial walks through coding the Barnsley Fern in Python, using Google Colab, and employing libraries like NUMPY and Matplotlib. It highlights the importance of probability in function selection and shows how to plot and visualize the fern. The tutorial concludes with an improved visualization method using NUMPY arrays, inspired by Christian Hill's approach.
