on a graph, y=1 i started with x=3 then 6,9,12, and so on...till uncountable
then y=2:x=4,8,12,16...
y=3:x=5,10,15...etc
etc etc
you get the drift...till i ran out of room on the graph i used y=around 50 or etc...
and with all the points graphed i came up with a pattern...

my question is has anyone come across this before and are there any internet links to explore
i love the patterns that can be found by doing simple things...
another question...are there any Mac apps to for graphing that let's you places dots and certain intervals so i could explore this more..(found out the equation for the arcs involved) the program i used is called 'live' its a music program (no x and y axis) i work with...exploring doppler in music and i expanded and found this pattern :P
