corresponds with Adamson's "H-bond codon-anticodon magic square" (see page 287 in Pickover's book):
CCC CCU CUU CUC UUC UUU UCU UCC
CCA CCG CUG CUA UUA UUG UCG UCA
CAA CAG CGG CGA UGA UGG UAG UAA
CAC CAU CGU CGC UGC UGU UAU UAC
AAC AAU AGU AGC GGC GGU GAU GAC
AAA AAG AGG AGA GGA GGG GAG GAA
ACA ACG AUG AUA GUA GUG GCG GCA
ACC ACU AUU AUC GUC GUU GCU GCC
when the base-triples are interpreted as quaternary (base-4) numbers, with the following rules: C = 0, A = 1, G = 2, U = 3.
