[Spec] Coordinate Pairings and "axons"

Did some searching and didn't find anywhere that anyone had done this.

Ok, I don't have the tools to do this (otherwise I would do it myself) but has anyone taken the pairings, drawn a line between just the pairings and then seen what it looks like on a map or grid or whatever?

We have 220 points which would be 110 lines. Do those lines make any type of picture?


It would seem to make sense from everything I have read. Axons are lines, not points and the points were given in pairings. The only maps I have seen have been points and lines drawn among ALL the points. How about a map with lines just drawn between the paired points?

Actually, we have.... 222! lines, unless I am mistaken. Which is something like 1*10^426

Have fun.

That just shows that you didn't understand my post.

There would actually only be however many dots divided by two BECAUSE I propose to ONLY draw lines between the paired points. Which would only be ONE line per TWO points. That's why I think they were paired.


And before anyone trouts this, I just read in the MAMMOTH thread and saw where someone did just as I suggested in a graph-like way. The problem is that a graph is nothing like the United States when you look at the point placement, as already shown when people tried to connect the dots and form a pegasus type picture. So no one has actually done the what I have suggested on a US map. I think this may prove to be something, however I have not the tools to do it.

Whew, barely avoided that trout...I think...but I am starting to think I should have actually put this idea in the mammoth thread...sorry...

Sure I saw a US map with this on in the mammoth thread... but I don't have time to check. Smile

But thanks, since I'm not sure someone had posted here that that particular exercise was posted at the wiki.

and just for you -- Locky!
