Let be the number of black boxes, the length of a side of a box, and the fractional area of black boxes after the th iteration, then
The number of black squares after , 1, 2, ... iterations is therefore 1, 4, 16, 64, 256, 1024, 4096, 16384, ... (Sloane's A000302). The capacity dimension is therefore
