NAME

Math::NumSeq::MathImageKolakoskiGroups -- majority value in groups of Kolakoski values

SYNOPSIS

 use Math::NumSeq::MathImageKolakoskiGroups;
 my $seq = Math::NumSeq::MathImageKolakoskiGroups->new (length => 3);
 my ($i, $value) = $seq->next;

DESCRIPTION

This is the majority value in the Kolakoski sequence grouped into threes, or a given length runs.

    Kolakoski: 1,2,2, 1,1,2, 1,2,2, 1,2,2, ...

    majority:    2,     1,     2,     2,

Groups of length 1 will just give the Kolakoski itself.

In the current code groups of an even length are allowed, and if there's an equal number of 1s and 2s in a group then the "majority" is reckoned as 1.5, half way between the two. Is that a good idea? Don't depend on even lengths just yet.

FUNCTIONS

See "FUNCTIONS" in Math::NumSeq for the behaviour common to all path classes.

$seq = Math::NumSeq::MathImageKolakoskiGroups->new (length => $integer)

Create and return a new sequence object.
