How do I simulate a rate limiter?

Open this page and use the live L-System Fractals tool below — set your inputs and the simulation runs instantly in your browser using real numerics. No install, no account needed.

Yes. The simulation runs free in your browser. A one-time unlock or a Pro plan adds advanced parameters, saved presets, data import, and clean exports.

Can I use my own numbers?

Absolutely — every input is adjustable, and with data import you can drive a rate limiter from your own measurements.

Iterations

A Lindenmayer system grows a string by rewriting each symbol with a rule, then reads it as turtle commands: F draw, +/− turn, [ ] push/pop. Simple rules, botanical complexity.

Reading this result: After 5 rewrites the string holds 0 symbols — each pass replaces every symbol at once, so detail multiplies exponentially, not linearly.
