3D model of the Sierpinski triangle. With each iteration, the number of triangles triples. This results in the following calculation:
<ul><li>Iteration 00: 00001</li>
<li>Iteration 01: 00003</li>
<li>Iteration 02: 00009</li>
<li>Iteration 03: 00027</li>
<li>Iteration 04: 00081</li>
<li>Iteration 05: 00243</li>
<li>Iteration 06: 00729</li>
<li>Iteration 07: 02187</li>
<li>Iteration 08: 06561</li>
<li>Iteration 09: 19683</li>
<li>Iteration 10: 59049</li></ul>
This growth is also reflected in the file size and export. The export of the low iterated models took significantly less than a second, higher iterated ones several minutes or in the worst case hours. Working with higher iterations is extremely lengthy as of 5/20/2022.
