The author indicates how Bajraktarevic’s functional equation, \(x(t)=f(t,x(b(t)))\), can be used in order to recover many classical nondifferentiable functions, as these from Weierstrass, Knopp, van der Waerden, Hildebrandt and Sierpinski. More recent curves and new ones can be generated also. An iterative scheme for the graphical computation of the curves related to this functional equation is given at the end. There are six graphical representations with associated numerical data.
