%N Total number of black cells after n iterations of Langton's ant with two ants on the grid placed side-by-side with one empty square between them and initially looking in the same direction.
%C The two ants meet seven times; in that case, the color of the current square is flipped only once. Eventually, both ants build a recurrent highway pattern. - _Rémy Sigrist_, Jul 28 2019
