In this work, the “rod counting” method is reviewed in comparison with the “box counting” method applied to linear measurements on irregular figures. Both methods are applied in measurements of fractal dimension of some knowing fractals. Results shows that the “rod counting” method is more accurate in linear measurements. Later the method is applied in a Mandelbrot fractal figure to measure its perimeter fractal dimension.Keywords
