For N=odd*2^k the coordinates are X=k, Y=(odd-1)/2. The X coordinate is how many factors of 2 can be divided out. The Y coordinate counts odd integers 1,3,5,7,etc as 0,1,2,3,etc. This is clearer by writing N values in binary,

Radix
The "radix" parameter can do the same dividing out in a higher base. For example radix 3 divides out factors of 3,
radix => 3 9 | 14 42 126 378 1134 3402 10206 30618 8 | 13 39 117 351 1053 3159 9477 28431 7 | 11 33 99 297 891 2673 8019 24057 6 | 10 30 90 270 810 2430 7290 21870 5 | 8 24 72 216 648 1944 5832 17496 4 | 7 21 63 189 567 1701 5103 15309 3 | 5 15 45 135 405 1215 3645 10935 2 | 4 12 36 108 324 972 2916 8748 1 | 2 6 18 54 162 486 1458 4374 Y=0 | 1 3 9 27 81 243 729 2187 +------------------------------------------------ X=0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7
N=1,3,9,27,etc on the X axis is the powers of 3.
N=1,2,4,5,7,etc on the Y axis is the integers N=1or2 mod 3, ie. those not a multiple of 3. Notice if Y=1or2 mod 4 then the N values in that row are all even, or if Y=0or3 mod 4 then the N values are all odd.

Boundary Length
The points N=1 to N=2^k-1 inclusive have a boundary length
boundary = 2^k + 2k
For example N=1 to N=7 is
+---+ | 7 | + + | 5 | + +---+ | 3 6 | + +---+ | 1 2 4 | +---+---+---+
The height is the odd numbers, so 2^(k-1). The width is the power k. So total boundary 2*height+2*width = 2^k + 2k.
If N=2^k is included then it's on the X axis and so add 2, for boundary = 2^k + 2k + 2.
For other radix the calculation is similar
boundary = 2 * (radix-1) * radix^(k-1) + 2*k
For example radix=3, N=1 to N=8 is
8 7 5 4 2 6 1 3
The height is the non-multiples of the radix, so (radix-1)/radix * radix^k. The width is the power k again. So total boundary = 2*height+2*width.
FUNCTIONS
See ``FUNCTIONS'' in Math::PlanePath for the behaviour common to all path classes.- "$path = Math::PlanePath::PowerArray->new ()"
- Create and return a new path object.
- "($x,$y) = $path->n_to_xy ($n)"
- Return the X,Y coordinates of point number $n on the path. Points begin at 1 and if "$n < 0" then the return is an empty list.
- "$n = $path->xy_to_n ($x,$y)"
-
Return the N point number at coordinates "$x,$y". If "$x<0" or
"$y<0" then there's no N and the return is "undef".
N values grow rapidly with $x. Pass in a number type such as "Math::BigInt" to preserve precision.
- "($n_lo, $n_hi) = $path->rect_to_n_range ($x1,$y1, $x2,$y2)"
- The returned range is exact, meaning $n_lo and $n_hi are the smallest and biggest in the rectangle.
FORMULAS
Rectangle to N Range
Within each row increasing X is increasing N, and in each column increasing Y is increasing N. So in a rectangle the lower left corner is the minimum N and the upper right is the maximum N.
| N max | ----------+ | | ^ | | | | | | | ----> | | +---------- | N min +-------------------
N to Turn Left or Right
The turn left or right is given by
radix = 2 left at N==0 mod radix and N==1mod4, right otherwise radix >= 3 left at N==0 mod radix right at N=1 or radix-1 mod radix straight otherwise
The points N!=0 mod radix are on the Y axis and those N==0 mod radix are off the axis. For that reason the turn at N==0 mod radix is to the left,
| C-- --- A--__ -- point B is N=0 mod radix, | --- B turn left A-B-C is left
For radix>=3 the turns at A and C are to the right, since the point before A and after C is also on the Y axis. For radix>=4 there's of run of points on the Y axis which are straight.
For radix=2 the ``B'' case N=0 mod 2 applies, but for the A,C points in between the turn alternates left or right.
1-- N=1 mod 4 3-- N=3 mod 4 \ -- turn left \ -- turn right \ -- \ -- 2 -- 2 -- -- -- -- -- 0 4
Points N=2 mod 4 are X=1 and Y=N/2 whereas N=0 mod 4 has 2 or more trailing 0 bits so X>1 and Y<N/2.
N mod 4 turn ------- ------ 0 left for radix=2 1 left 2 left 3 right
