What sort of field would be generated from this type of coil layout?? This isn't homework, just a general inquiry. (see picture)

If you want a precise answer, simulate it.
It would look similar to the field of a rectangular coil, just with dents following the dents of the wire.
 
Thanks for you reply, how would I go about simulating it? What program would I use? Any information is greatly appreciated.
