To construct such blocks use a pair of ants facing north at (x,y) and (x+1,y+2) (using Golly's coordinate system). Each successive block is placed 1 cell away from the previous one, i.e., the x coordinate shifts by 3, so we have (x+3k,y) and (x+3k+1,y+2). Also, because of the symmetry of the oscillation pattern, 4*a(n) is the length of the whole period (see MathOverflow link for details). - _Mikhail Kurkov_, Nov 20 2019 %D A017101 James J.
