Hurst exponent evaluated via calculated by box-counting method on short time series example fractal dimension

The three versions of box counting algorithm for determining the fractal dimension of a spreadsheet Ms Excel is implemented. Values of Hearst exponent have been obtained for ten short individual time series, by the designed algorithm, based on the equation D = 2-H. The values of Hearst exponent received by means of general methods are given. The research results prove that the exact value of the fractal dimension and Hearst exponent can be obtained using the third version of the algorithm.
