NAME

6       Math::PlanePath::DekkingCentres -- 5x5 self-similar
7

SYNOPSIS

9        use Math::PlanePath::DekkingCentres;
10        my $path = Math::PlanePath::DekkingCentres->new;
11        my ($x, $y) = $path->n_to_xy (123);

DESCRIPTION

14       This is a variation on a 5x5 self-similar curve from
15
16           F. M. Dekking, "Recurrent Sets", Advances in Mathematics, volume
17           44, 1982, pages 79-104, section 4.9 "Gosper-Type Curves"
18
19       and which is a horizontal mirror image of the E-curve of McKenna 1978.
20
21       The form visits the "centres" of the 5x5 self-similar unit squares of
22       the pattern.  The result is some diagonal steps, but replications
23       wholly within 5x5 areas.

49       The base pattern is the N=0 to N=24 section.  It repeats with rotations
50       or reversals which make the ends join.  For example N=75 to N=99 is the
51       base pattern in reverse.  Or N=50 to N=74 is reverse and also rotate by
52       -90.

FUNCTIONS

55       See "FUNCTIONS" in Math::PlanePath the behaviour common to all path
56       classes.
57
58       "$path = Math::PlanePath::DekkingCentres->new ()"
59           Create and return a new path object.
60
61       "($x,$y) = $path->n_to_xy ($n)"
62           Return the X,Y coordinates of point number $n on the path.  Points
63           begin at 0 and if "$n < 0" then the return is an empty list.
64
65   Level Methods
66       "($n_lo, $n_hi) = $path->level_to_n_range($level)"
67           Return "(0, 25**$level - 1)".
