COMMENTS

Coordinates are given on a hexagonal lattice with X-axis and Y-axis as follows (the Y-axis corresponds to the sixth primitive root of unity):
Y
/
/
0 ---- X
The alternate terdragon curve can be represented using an L-system.

FORMULA
|
a(9^k) = 3^k for any k >= 0.
a(9*n) = 3*a(n).
|
|
EXAMPLE
|
The alternate terdragon curve starts as follows:
14
\
\
2----3,12--10,13
\ / \ / \
\ / \ / \
0----1,4--5,8,11--9
/ \
/ \
6-----7
- so a(0) = a(2) = 0,
a(1) = a(3) = a(4) = a(12) = a(14) = 1.
