4-3 Algorithmic Pattern: A Mathematical Explanation

Warning, this is not a real math explanation. It's just a bunch of words and numbers.

Imagine a grid of squares, each representing a pixel. The 4-3 pattern is a series of instructions that tells you when to draw a line between two squares.

Start at the top left corner. If the current square's number is divisible by 3, draw a line to the right. Otherwise, draw a line down.

Repeat this process until you reach the bottom right corner.

Example:

1 2 3
4 5 6
7 8 9
