NAME
Math::PlanePath::LTiling -- 2x2 self-similar of four pattern parts
SYNOPSIS
use Math::PlanePath::LTiling;
my $path = Math::PlanePath::LTiling->new;
my ($x, $y) = $path->n_to_xy (123);DESCRIPTION
This is a self-similar tiling by "L" shapes. A base "L" is replicated four times with end parts turned +90 and -90 degrees to make a larger L,

+-----+ +-----+-----+ +-----+-----+-----+-----+The parts are numbered to the left then middle then upper. This relative numbering is maintained when rotated at the next replication level, as for example N=4 to N=7.
The result is to visit 1 of every 3 points in the first quadrant with a subtle layout of points and spaces making diagonal lines and little 2x2 blocks.

Left or Upper
Option L_fill => "left" or L_fill => "upper" numbers the tiles instead at their left end or upper end respectively.

"left" is as viewed looking towards the L from above. It may have been better to call it "right", but won't change that now.
Ends
Option L_fill => "ends" numbers the two endpoints within each "L", first the left then upper. This is the inverse of the default middle shown above, ie. it visits all the points which the middle option doesn't, and so 2 of every 3 points in the first quadrant.

+-----+-----+ X=0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7Along the X=Y leading diagonal N=0,6,24,30,96,etc are triples of the values from the single-point case, so 3* numbers using digits 0 and 2 in base 4, which is the same as 2* numbers using 0 and 3 in base 4.
Level Ranges
For the "middles", "left" or "upper" cases with one N per tile, and taking the initial N=0 tile as level 0, a replication level is
Nstart = 0
to
Nlevel = 4^level - 1 inclusive
Xmax = Ymax = 2 * 2^level - 1For example level 2 which is the large tiling shown in the introduction is N=0 to N=4^2-1=15 and extends to Xmax=Ymax=2*2^2-1=7.
For the "ends" variation there's two points per tile, or for "all" there's three, in which case the Nlevel increases to
Nlevel_ends = 2 * 4^level - 1
Nlevel_all = 3 * 4^level - 1FUNCTIONS
See "FUNCTIONS" in Math::PlanePath for behaviour common to all path classes.
$path = Math::PlanePath::LTiling->new ()$path = Math::PlanePath::LTiling->new (L_fill => $str)-
Create and return a new path object. The
L_fillchoices are"middle" the default "left" "upper" "ends" "all" ($x,$y) = $path->n_to_xy ($n)-
Return the X,Y coordinates of point number
$non the path. Points begin at 0 and if$n < 0then the return is an empty list.
Level Methods
($n_lo, $n_hi) = $path->level_to_n_range($level)-
Return
0, 4**$level - 1 middle, left, upper 0, 2*4**$level - 1 ends 0, 3*4**$level - 1 allThere are 4^level L shapes in a level, each containing 1, 2 or 3 points, numbered starting from 0.
OEIS
Entries in Sloane's Online Encyclopedia of Integer Sequences related to this path include
http://oeis.org/A062880 (etc)
L_fill=middle
A062880 N on X=Y diagonal, base 4 digits 0,2 only
A048647 permutation N at transpose Y,X
base4 digits 1<->3 and 0,2 unchanged
A112539 X+Y+1 mod 2, parity inverted
L_fill=left or upper
A112539 X+Y mod 2, parityA112539 is a parity of bits at even positions in N, ie. count 1-bits at even bit positions (least significant is bit position 0), then add 1 and take mod 2. This works because in the pattern sub-blocks 0 and 2 are unchanged and 1 and 3 are turned so as to be on opposite X,Y odd/even parity, so a flip for every even position 1-bit. L_fill=middle starts on a 0 even parity, and L_fill=left and upper start on 1 odd parity. The latter is the form in A112539 and L_fill=middle is the bitwise 0<->1 inverse.
