COMMENTS
| Consider the 4-step recursion x(k)=x(k-1)+x(k-2)+x(k-3)+x(k-4) mod n. For any of the n^4 initial conditions x(1), x(2), x(3) and x(4) in Zn, the recursion has a finite period. When n is a prime in this sequence, all of the orbits, except the one containing (0,0,0,0), have the same length.
For the prime 3 the orbit structure contains three orbits of length 1: (0,0,0,0), (1,1,1,1) and (2,2,2,2).
