Dear Mr Smyth,
I am fascinated in reading your article about Visualizing fractions and cyclic reciprocals.
Actually I do the same with another method of visualizing printing this in a high quality. There is an exibition of my works in Hamburg right now.
I am engineer and I have used that Pandemy-time, full 2 years to study numbertheory at home using the mathematical tool Maple. Since October 2022 when that visualization technic comes to me, I focus in my research in periods of reciprocal primes and, like you, analyzing this plots. I like the base pairs wich are mirrored and tuned 90 degrees.
This is fun and I love numbers 🙂
So If you like we may exchange our knowledge about periods and cycles.
Best regards form the north of germany near denmark at the shore of the north sea.
