This paper presents an iterative algorithm capable of generating a family of fractal curves. The proposed algorithm is associated with a sequence of knapsack programs with a general rule for assigning weights to the objective functions. The fast growth of the size of the programs is considered, and a random stopping rule is introduced to obtain an approximation of a fractal curve.
