Questions:
- In what respect are L-systems/graftals not fractal ?
- What are some of the key restrictions for objects generated by L-systems ?

- How can mutations of the genotype be implemented in simulated evolution ?
- How can one enhance the probability of getting good/desirable results sooner rather than later ?
Assignment: Prepare your final project presentations
