Matrixes

The matrixes are basically just an alternate arrangement of the numbers. I have matrixes that show the relationship between the shapes + their marks (empty, dot, dash, slash marks), as well as matrixes for the individual numbers using both their full 16-digit string, and their MRPs.
This chart shows all the numbers, with their Quadrants listed in rows (going # 1 – 2 – 3 – 4). The rows with marks above them mean that every shape in that row contains that particular mark (so a circle in a dot row would be “1”). What I like about this format is that it’s easier to see the relationship between numbers and their patterns. Such as with 1, 2, 4, and 8. The pattern just keeps getting condensed down. I’ll go over the commonalities between the different numbers more on their individual pages.

For the shape matrixes (for say, dashes as being 2, 6, 10 and 14) in particular, I read them vertically (going down through the numbers) to look at their relationship.

Here’s a basic chart with all the matrixes of any given mark, arranged by the shapes present in each pattern. (I’m ignoring the actual marks within the numbers, the numeric value is irrelevant in this process)

Now here’s the breakdown of each matrix.

The empty matrix is interesting because it follows the same pattern (column by column) that the dots would. going essentially 0, 1, 2, 3
Each matrix begins with a column following the dot’s sequence (0 – 1 – 2 -3 ).
The later columns are also interesting. The 2nd column moves upwards, pushing the first shape in the sequence to the bottom in the next quadrant. The 4th column works in reverse, pushing the last shape in the sequence down, leaving it on top in the next quadrant.
The 3rd column alternates between evens and odds (even – odd – even – odd).
This is the opposite of the slashes, which begin on the odds.
The dashes are fairly straightforward. The 2nd and 4th columns have the first 2 digits moving to the bottom each time, thus making the last-2 first. The 3rd column has alternating odd values ( 1 – 3 / 3 – 1 )
The Slashed shapes have their matrices begin in an order going 0 – 3 – 2 – 1, mirroring how the others follow their marks as well. The 2nd column moves downwards, putting the last shape on top in the next quadrant. The 4th column moves up, putting the top shape on the bottom.
The 3rd column alternates between odds and evens, and begins on the opposite set that the Dot’s do.
