I see, I think you are referring to the unequal spacing of the nuts on each side, i.e. the side with 5 nuts has them closer together than the other sides.
I thought there was some point being made about the use of nuts vs. some other arbitrary item. Why does it matter they are hazelnuts and not something else?
- Izkata 3y agoIt doesn't. The entirety of my comment is that they're representing the wrong thing.
- partdavid 3y agoNo! X--X--X 0 1 2 That diagram represents a length of 2, not a length of 3, see? Here's three: X--X--X--X 0 1 2 3 It's not that the hazelnuts are somehow imperfectly laid out or are an imperfect representation. It's wrong in principle, not practice (I mean it's wrong in practice too but every representation is).
- jb1991 3y agoThank you for literally explaining it to me like I was five, which apparently I am, I can’t believe I missed that.
- lupire 3y agoYou didn't miss it. You were focusing on the lattice edges, and PP was focusing on the lattice points. You're both right (except for PP's "No!" which should be "Yes!").
