Math::PlanePath::StaircaseAlternating -- stair-step diagonals up and down
use Math::PlanePath::StaircaseAlternating; my $path = Math::PlanePath::StaircaseAlternating->new; my ($x, $y) = $path->n_to_xy (123);
This path makes a staircase pattern up from Y axis down to the X and then back up again.

See "FUNCTIONS" in Math::PlanePath for the behaviour common to all path classes.
$path = Math::PlanePath::StaircaseAlternating->new ()
Create and return a new staircase path object.
($x,$y) = $path->n_to_xy ($n)
