🌀 Strange Attractor
A strange attractor is a set of states toward which a chaotic dynamical system evolves, with a fractal (non-integer) geometric structure rather than a simple point, curve or surface. Trajectories on a strange attractor never repeat exactly and never intersect, yet stay bounded forever within the same intricately folded region of phase space.
