( ← )
means from RIGHT
to LEFT
( → ) means from LEFT
to RIGHT
It will probably be best to have in hand colour prints of these
diagrams; requirement
to be
able to easily "follow" what is coming :
On
each rim, in direction RIGHT
to LEFT
(
←) ( the way the BIGHT were numbered
for ANB) (i) is for the first order Bight and
(n)
the very
next one , the immediately
adjacent one.
recall to mind that :
-----------------------------------
Half-period B.R.T.L ( yellow
-
↖ - ODD ) is coming up from a bottom rim
BIGHT with
number (i)
{bottom
rim (i) that is ; there will also
be (i), on the top rim}
the half-period number is computed using ( (2 * i) + 3 ).
The
Index going hand in hand with the BIGHT is I(i + 1 )
{ (i ) is for
(i) on the considered rim and (n) is for the very next -adjacent- one
on
the
same rim with (n = i + 1 )}
is computed by evaluating :
I(i + 1) = ((i + 1) * L) modulus B
I(n) =( (n) * L) modulus B
This
ODD B.R.T.L ↖
will cross an EVEN T.R.B.L ↙
half-period already
present and
coming from the top rim.
Already laid half-period ((2 * n ) + 2) related
to top BIGHT rim with number (n) by a bight
index number (n +
1)
I(n+1) = ((n + 1) * L) modulus B
This I(n+1) is at a distance, measured in columns of bight, left from
the bottom rim I(n+1).
This distance( in bight columns) is
(I(n+1) - I(i+1))modulus B == (((n+1)*L) - ((i+1)*L)) modulus B ==
((n - i ) * L) modulus B
We can deduce that half-period ((2*i) + 3) and half-period ((2*n) + 2)
cross at a position some
crossing row up
from the bottom rim. (easy : there is no crossing
on the rim itself so
it is at least 1 row up, hence the "some"
! )
The distance in row is ((n - i) * L) modulus B +
(x*B)
x being >=0 and verifying 0<((n-i)*L) mod B +
(x*B)<L (you
cannot go where there is
no crossing row ! The rim of
Bights which are devoid of crossing)
To
lay in the real cordage route this ((2*i) + 3) B.R.T.L ↖ half-period
we
had better be
knowing what sort of crossing it should be doing with the
already laid T.R.L.B ↙ half-period.
In order to be able to know if it is Over or Under
we have to know on which crossing rows
the crossing to be made is
situated.
The already laid
T.R.B.L are linked with n-values having a range 0 to (i)
[
0<=n<=i ] so
that (n - i ) has a range of (-i)
to 0 [
-i<=n-i<=0] ( look 0 - i <= n - i <= i - i
, understand
now ? )
B.R.T.L ↖ makes
their crossing with already
existing T.R.B.L ↙ on
a row of crossing the distance
of which is measured from the bottom rim : this is the
justification for
numbering
the row
of crossings from bottom rim to top rim (
↑
) ( ↑ goes with ↖
) on the LEFT
side of
the
diagram with the crossings figured
----------------------------------
Half-period T.R.B.L ( blue
-
↙ - EVEN ) is coming down from an
top rim
BIGHT with
number (i) {top
rim (i) that is}
the half-period number is computed using ((2 * i) + 2 ).
The
Index going hand in hand with the BIGHT is I(n + 1 ) is computed by
I(n + 1) = ((n + 1) + L) modulus B.
This T.R.B.L ↙ starting
on the top rim will cross already laid B.R.T.L ↖ half-period
(2 * ( n - 1) + 3) = (2 * n ) + 1 which is linked with a bottom rim
Bight with number (n - 1)
This B.R.T.L ↖ coming
from bottom rim point I(n) = (((n - 1) +
1) * L) modulus B
or ( n * L) modulus B will arrive on top rim at point I(n)
=(n * L) modulus B
this top rim I(j) is some
number bight columns on the left(because
↖) of
the top rim
index I(i).
This distance in number
of bight is :
(I(n) - I(i) )modulus B = ((n * L) - ( i * L)) modulus B = ((n - i) *
L) modulus B
so in columns of bight
it is ( 2 * ((n - i) * L) modulus B)
From Bight 1 to Bight 2 (2=1 + 1) on a given rim there is 2 and not one
unit in
BIGHT
ROW as) the bight on the other rim are offset.
See picture of BIGHT ROW .
Half-period
((2 * i) + 2) cross half-period ((2 * n) + 1) some crossing
row
under the
top rim.
This distance under the top row is
((n - i) *L) modulus B + (x * B)
with x>=0 verifying
0<((n - i ) * L) modulus B + ( x * B) < L
So knowing the
crossing row where the crossing is gives you its nature.
All
the already laid
B.R.T.L ↖
half-period are linked with n values ranging
from 0 to (i)
( 0 <=n<=i ) so the value of ( n - i)
ranges
from(-)i to 0 ( -i)<= (n - 1) <= 0
the distance
under the top rim is counted from this top rim which
justify that the
row
crossing on the RIGHT
side were numbered from 0 to L
(↓
goes with↙
starting
from the
top rim
----------------------------------
A
"happy coincidence" : computation of ROW distance ( from the rim
they come from)
of the crossing made by half-periods (( 2 * n) + 2)
and ((2 * i) + 3) are identical in row
of arrival.
ROW distance from upper rim to
crossing of half-period ((2 * n) + 2) is equal to the
ROW
distance from the lower rim to crossing in half-period ((2 * i) + 3)
so
from bottom
or from top
you arrive in the same row of crossing ( but
this ONE row of crossing has a label number
that is different in the
left "scale" ↑ and
on the right "scale" ↓
)
I mean third for bottom is 3 on the left
sequence corresponding to 7 - 3 = 4 on the RIGHT
sequence, the one
measured from the top. ( related to the (+ 2 )and (+ 3),
discrepancy is 1)
----------------------------------
Let
us consider 2 crossing half-period verifying the relation (n - i) =
minus 1
( remember : circular numbering of BIGHT, here we
have
come around , and are on the
right side of 0)
( minus 1 modulus B is equivalent to ( B)-(1 modulus B)
(-1)
mod 5 == 4
(5) -(1 mod 5)
== 5 - 1 == 4
Their
BIGHT ( of the 2 crossing half-period) attached on the rim from which
the considered
half-period starts
are BIGHT(i) and BIGHT(n) following one another immediately,
adjacent (spatial) in
time on
the given rim, consecutively(
temporal)in
the cordage run. adjacent/consecutive
in time does not necessarily means adjacent in space along
a rim.
Their
first crossing point (must
be
verified pointedly) is at
((minus
L) modulus B) ROWS from
the rim on which BIGHT (i) is coming from..
Next crossing ( the second one ) is yet farther along by B ROW
crossing ( obliquity, slant
oblige ) from this rim, and on and on it
goes
(minus L) modulus B is also in the relation of intersections rows ;
those intersection row are
climbed up or down along the slant, as in a
staircase from one BIGHT to the next .
(must
be verified pointedly)
-----------------------------------
We
should have by now enough to discuss directly on the
algorithm diagram
where
(hopefully) we
will "read" the consecutive ROW of crossings ordering. In other words
the
crossing met along the run of the considered half-period.

Put in line B points (#), with one of them with "0", the leftmost in

late to modify but strictly it should have been Number Written instead of Digit Written)
DW = n - i ???????????????VERIFY
different sorts of cases, beware of "flukes"
it is placed at (minus DW * L) modulus B '#' from

ROW
distance from the rim of the ROW of crossings belonging with the first
crossing made
by the half-period ((2 * i) + 2) and (( 2 * n) + 1 ( with n -
i = DW) TO the
rim where the starting point of ((2 * i) + 2 is placed is
computed by
( minus DW * L) modulus B (already seen a few lines above )
ROW
of crossing distance for the first crossing on half-period
((2

(minus DW) a range
of
values
- i <= (minus DW) <= 0 which can also be written as
0 <= DW <= i ( slant oblige )

The
sharpest readers will have remarked that those are the BIGHT NUMBER (
but not
those "belonging" to it ). Remember differentiate SPATIAL from TEMPORAL.
They
are in relation to the BIGHT number on the LOWER RIM WHICH HAVE THE
SEQUENCE 0 3 1
4 2
which is the PERIODIC SEQUENCE
We can get this last sequence by using ( no, not (minus L) modulus N )
( +L) modulus B here (+7)modulus 5 = 2
note 3 + 2 = complement to 5
I do prefer the look of B
- [(B - L )
modulus B ]
5 - ((5-7)mod5 == 5 - 2mod5 == 5 - 3 ==

The
formula I found and that I prefer B - [(B - L ) modulus B ]
IMMEDIATELY show
that is is COMPLEMENTARY - complementary to
