The is a 1-1 mapping <math>\mathbb{Z}^2 \to \mathbb{Z}</math>. | |||
We first derive the function from <math>\mathbb{Z}^2</math> to <math>\mathbb{z}</math> as shown in Figure 2. | |||
Let <math>(x,y)</math> be the coordinates in <math>\{(0,0), (1, 0), (1,1), ...\}</math> which will map to <math>\({0, 1, 2, ...\}</math>. | |||
First note that <math>\sum_{0}^{k}i = \frac{(k)(k+1)}{2}</math>. | |||
Thus the number of elements in columns <math>0, ..., x-1</math> is <math>(x)(x+1)/2</math>. | |||
Thus our formula is <math>z = \frac{x(x+1)}{2} + y</math> | |||
To calculate the inverse formula: | |||
Given an integer <math>z</math>, we want to find <math>(x, y)</math> | |||
The formula is figure 1 is as follows: |
