The correlation dimension D (2) as a characteristic measure of the regular or chaotic behaviour of the solar dynamical system has been calculated. The algorithm suggested by Grassberger and Procaccia (1983) has been applied to time series of relative sunspot numbers and of areas of sunspots and faculae. In the first case, a correlation dimension D (2) ≃ 1.5 has been found; in the other two cases, the algorithm was not convergent, the results obtained being not relevant, due to the too short series of data available.
