Given a siteswape notatiion, is there a algorithm to derive:
* the period number. (the period is the number of throws all colored
balls return to their position.)
* the number of orbits in a pattern. (a orbit is the path a ball
travels.)
* whether the pattern is ambidextrous. (a pattern is ambidextrous if
left and right hand play the same role. (not necessarily synchronized
or lockstep.))
* the period of the orbit (in the framework of the whole pattern. i.e.
the period of a orbit is necessarily less or equal to the period of the
pattern.).
Also, is there a notation to describe a ball's orbit?
