=head1 NAME
Math::PlanePath::SierpinskiArrowheadCentres -- self-similar triangular path traversal
=head1 SYNOPSIS
use Math::PlanePath::SierpinskiArrowheadCentres;
my $path = Math::PlanePath::SierpinskiArrowheadCentres->new;
my ($x, $y) = $path->n_to_xy (123);
=head1 DESCRIPTION
X<Sierpinski, Waclaw>This is a version of the Sierpinski arrowhead path
taking the centres of each triangle represented by the arrowhead segments.
The effect is to traverse the C<SierpinskiTriangle> points in a connected
sequence.

The base figure is the N=0 to N=2 shape. It's repeated up in mirror image
as N=3 to N=6 then rotated across as N=6 to N=9. At the next level the same
is done with N=0 to N=8 as the base, then N=9 to N=17 up mirrored, and N=18
to N=26 across, etc.
The X,Y coordinates are on a triangular lattice using every second integer
X, per L<Math::PlanePath/Triangular Lattice>.
The base pattern is a triangle like
.-------.-------.
\ / \ /
\ 2 / \ 1 /
\ / \ /
.- - - -.
\ /
\ 0 /
\ /
.
Higher levels replicate this within the triangles 0,1,2 but the middle is
not traversed. The result is the familiar Sierpinski triangle by connected
steps of either 2 across or 1 diagonal.

=head2 Level Ranges
Counting the N=0,1,2 part as level 1, each replication level goes from
Nstart = 0
Nlevel = 3^level - 1 inclusive
For example level 2 from N=0 to N=3^2-1=9. Each level doubles in size,
0 <= Y <= 2^level - 1
- (2^level - 1) <= X <= 2^level - 1
The Nlevel position is alternately on the right or left,
Xlevel = / 2^level - 1 if level even
\ - 2^level + 1 if level odd
The Y axis ie. X=0, is crossed just after N=1,5,17,etc which is is 2/3
through the level, which is after two replications of the previous level,
Ncross = 2/3 * 3^level - 1
= 2 * 3^(level-1) - 1
=head2 Align Parameter
An optional C<align> parameter controls how the points are arranged relative
to the Y axis. The default shown above is "triangular". The choices are
the same as for the C<SierpinskiTriangle> path.
"right" means points to the right of the axis, packed next to each other and
so using an eighth of the plane.

"diagonal" puts rows on diagonals down from the Y axis to the X axis. This
uses the whole of the first quadrant, with gaps.

These diagonals visit all points X,Y where X and Y written in binary have no
1-bits in the same places, ie. where S<X bitand Y> = 0. This is the same as
the C<SierpinskiTriangle> with align=diagonal.
=head1 FUNCTIONS
See L<Math::PlanePath/FUNCTIONS> for behaviour common to all path classes.
=over 4
=item C<$path = Math::PlanePath::SierpinskiArrowheadCentres-E<gt>new ()>
=item C<$path = Math::PlanePath::SierpinskiArrowheadCentres-E<gt>new (align =E<gt> $str)>
Create and return a new arrowhead path object. C<align> is a string, one of
the following as described above.
"triangular" the default
"right"
"left"
"diagonal"
=item C<($x,$y) = $path-E<gt>n_to_xy ($n)>
Return the X,Y coordinates of point number C<$n> on the path. Points begin
at 0 and if C<$n E<lt> 0> then the return is an empty list.
If C<$n> is not an integer then the return is on a straight line between the
integer points.

=head1 FORMULAS
=head2 N to X,Y
The align="diagonal" style is the most convenient to calculate. Each
ternary digit of N becomes a bit of X and Y.
ternary digits of N, high to low
xbit = state_to_xbit[state+digit]
ybit = state_to_ybit[state+digit]
state = next_state[state+digit]
There's a total of 6 states which are the permutations of 0,1,2 in the three
triangular parts. The states are in pairs as forward and reverse, but that
has no particular significance. Numbering the states by "3"s allows the
digit 0,1,2 to be added to make an index into tables for X,Y bit and next
state.
state=0 state=3

+---------+ +---------+
The initial state is 0 if an even number of ternary digits, or 6 if odd. In
the samples above it can be seen for example that N=0 to N=8 goes upwards as
per state 0, whereas N=0 to N=2 goes across as per state 6.
Having calculated an X,Y in align="diagonal" style it can be mapped to the
other alignments by
align coordinates from diagonal X,Y
----- -----------------------------
triangular X-Y, X+Y
right X, X+Y
left -Y, X+Y
=head2 N to dX,dY
For fractional N the direction of the curve towards the N+1 point can be
found from the least significant digit 0 or 1 (ie. a non-2 digit) and the
state at that point.
This works because if the least significant ternary digit of N is a 2 then
the direction of the curve is determined by the next level up, and so on for
all trailing 2s until reaching a non-2 digit.
If N is all 2s then the direction should be reckoned from an initial 0 digit
above them, which means the opposite 6 or 0 of the initial state.
=head2 Rectangle to N Range
An easy over-estimate of the range can be had from inverting the Nlevel
formulas in L</Level Ranges> above.
level = floor(log2(Ymax)) + 1
Nmax = 3^level - 1
For example Y=5, level=floor(log2(11))+1=3, so Nmax=3^3-1=26, which is the
left end of the Y=7 row, ie. rounded up to the end of the Y=4 to Y=7
replication.
