Repetitive computer image? A lot of uproar about source of this line (7)
I believe the answer is:
fractal
'repetitive computer image? a lot' is the definition.
I can't judge whether this defines the answer.
'uproar about source of this line' is the wordplay.
'uproar' becomes 'fract' (I can't explain this - if you can you should believe this answer much more).
'source of' suggests taking the first letters (the start - or source - of the word).
'this line' becomes 'l' (used when specifying particular lines from a poem).
The initial letter of 'about' is 'a'.
'fract'+'a'+'l'='FRACTAL'
'of' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for fractal that I've seen before include "curious figure" , "Geometric shape exhibiting same characteristic at every scale" , "Strange surface" .)
