Interesting patterns for HP-42S



#7

There are doubly-periodic pixellated patterns in which the frequencies of lit to unlit pixels are equal across all rows, columns and diagonals (left and right) of the pattern. When the basic pattern is of size 8, the frequencies can be equal. Looking for particular symmetries can lead the way to some strikingly beautiful patterns. I was curious to find out how compactly I could represent these in the HP-42S, and came up with the program listed below. (Rv is roll down, * is multiply).

Enter a number from 0 to 10 in ST X and XEQ "DPP". (only 0, 1, and 5 shown below, to save a bit of typing)

The underlying mathematics for the pattern search was published by prof. Ben Johnsen in the norwegian mathematical journal Normat in 2001. The paper (in Norwegian) is not available on-line, but I can provide copies upon request.

A small selection of patterns with other sizes and symmetries is shown in this album

May I suggest RCL ST X ?


#9

yes, that did occur to me after posting. It works, but uses the same # of bytes.


#10

Exact. No byte are spared here!

Your code triggers me enough to let me try to observe your curious and highly symmetrical pixel patterns.

I have adapt your code to my HP-28S to take advantage of the larger LCD screen (double size in row compare to HP-42S).


« 64 STWD                  @  Use full size binary words
{ #E8AACC17E8335515h
#F0990FE13C66C31Eh
... @ Only pattern 0, 1 and 5 in list
#F0CC0F99F0330F66h
... @ to save keystrokes
}
SWAP 1 + GET @ get pattern from code list
"" @ initiate graphic string
1 8 START
SWAP RRB @ build 8x8 pixels pattern
DUP #FFh AND @ RRB is rotate right one byte
B->R CHR ROT + @ from code last byte into graphic string
NEXT
DUP OVER + @ grow gr. String up to 16 pixels
DUP + DUP + DUP + @ 32 p. -> 64p.-> 128p.
+ 0 CHR + @ adjust length to exactly 137 pixels /1 row on HP28C/)
DUP + DUP + @ repeat for each of the 4 rows
->LCD @ display graphic string
»
‘DPP’ STO

Usage, enter 0, 1 or 5 and press [ DPP ] menu key to see corresponding doubly-periodic pixellated patterns full screen (press [ ON ]+[ L ] to online-print screen).

I am now one the way to code other high symmetrical 8x8 pixel patterns.

#11

Very nice! I don't have a 28S, so I cannot try your programs, but the output looks exactly correct. The x48 emulator works for building the string, but it doesn't like the string argument to "->LCD" -- I haven't tried particularly hard, so I might have missed some subtlety.

The larger screen of the 28 could also be used to tile up the pattern, ie use 2x2 screen pixels as the basis for the pattern. Not exactly sure what kind of bit twiddling would turn the nybble "abcd" into "aabbccdd", perhaps a look-up table would be best?

I have some 2537 patterns of this weight and size (i.e. 4 of every 8 pixels are black, starting anywhere and counting horizontally, vertically or diagonally) of which 919 have more than one symmetry. They are not coded up as hexadecimal strings, however (searches started out with patterns of other sizes), but I should be able to recode to hex-strings without too much trouble.


#12

Tom, the 48 series has a more evolved graphic object concept. Hunt for GROB in the documentation!

#13

Here are some more interesting patterns for you to try, in hex form:
