Molto bello. Non capisco che c'entrano le scimmie, ma bello comunque.
(Very nice. I don't understand what the monkeys have to do with it, but it's nice all the same.)
Eh eh. :) The monkeys were there while I was saying this concept (more or less):
"different
software speak different languages with a lot of various syntaxes...
Sage does the work of translation so you can communicate with all of
those programs, like a universal interpreter"
Non si sente niente dagli video -- era l'intenzione?
(I didn't hear anything from the videos -- is that deliberate?)
Yes, I was "live commenting" them with my voice, sorry for that. :P
I didn't see any monkeys (?)
They're in the slide deck. ;)
but I did notice that you had axes in
your Sierpinski triangle; might as well use axes=False with those so
they don't distract. Nice!
Yes you're right. The fractal was developed by two high school girls friend of mine, while I was teaching them to use Sage; in an unrelated event. I used the idea for the triangle in order to explain what is a recursive function.
When I posted the code online on the website of the "Young mathematicians of [the province of] Vicenza" I tweaked it a bit so there are no axes:

I'm glad you like it.
One last thing... I forgot to mention that you can find the (very short) transcript at the bottom of this page:
