The Fractal Content Of Banana Spots

Oh, Please.

Just peel the damn thing and don't eat the big black spots.

Like this?

I am reminded of an about-to-graduate University student Engineer, I gave him a simple real-world problem to solve during his real-world work experience and said "right, what is the first thing you do?".

I knew his answer before I even asked the question, and sure enough the first thing he said was "model the problem!". I then said "no, you do this, then this, then this and it's done" (it was like a 3 minute technician-level job).

He learnt quite a lot that day, especially that modeling has its place but like any tool you really need to use the right one for the job at hand.

Sounds like a candidate for an IG Nobel prize.
