Some Thoughts re(2): First Stabs | Comment 6 of 15 |
(In reply to re: First Stabs by Gamer)

Based on those comments, I've aligned everything to the right, and put them into groups of four:


/ \

/-\

/ \ \-/

/ \ - \ /


/-\ / \ / \

/ \ \-/ /-\ /-\

/ \ - \-/ - \-/

/-\ \ / \ / \ / \ /


\ / - \ / \ / \ / / \

. . . /-\

. . . \-/

. . . \ /

The last part is a repeating series: / \, /-\, \-/, \ /.


I would guess that the numbers represented are maybe the counting numbers, where the last bit is on a mod 4 scale (+0, +1, -2, -1) or something, but still nothing is apparent yet. Maybe this arrangement will help someone else figure it out..
