PYTHAGORAS' POND

A Pythagorean tiling or two squares tessellation is a tiling of a Euclidean plane by squares of two different sizes, in which each square touches four squares of the other size on its four sides. Many proofs of the Pythagorean theorem are based on it, explaining its name. It is commonly used as a pattern for floor tiles. When used for this, it is also known as a hopscotch pattern or pinwheel pattern.

  5. A clever edit! Fits beautifully. Wonder what Pythagoras would think if he knew how his theories would be applied in the future:) Thanks so much for sharing this with All Seasons, and for all the internet info! Have a great week!

  6. I must be missing something but I don't see any discontinuities in the image. Did you adjust it so the tile shifted didn't causing misalignment?
