In this paper we describe the use of APL2 to implement and depict the equivalence between the
mathematical field of fractal curves and the linguistic field of parallel derivation grammars, by
tackling the problem of determining the dimension of a fractal from its representation as a
grammar. APL2 makes the required computation quite easy.
