Mike,

I think your scripts are very enlightening. I am enjoying trying to better
understand them. Thank you very much for your work here.

I thought I would try to better understand the issue of some viewmat
numbers being over 255. And although I see yours are all limited to 255, I
thought I would better understand the issue by studying the nouns AB, CD
and their resulting nouns, so I created the globals R, S, and T in msc, as
shown below. But to my surprise the resulting arrays contain all zeroes in
my experiments. Could you please comment?


msc=:mysquarecolours =: 3 : 0
:
nsteps   =. x
'A B C D'=. y
lamda =. (,:~-.)@:(%~ i.@>:) nsteps
R=: AB    =. lamda +/@:(*/"1) A,:B  NB. mix colours between corners A & B
S=: CD    =. lamda +/@:(*/"1) D,:C  NB. mix colours between corners C & D
1 0 2 |: <.T=: 255 * lamda +/@:(*/"1) AB,:CD NB.|: 'cos I got order wrong!
)


I am also puzzled over the rotations you mention relative to net #6 faces.
Could you say more about that, please?

Btw, I will mention 2 peculiarities I noticed.
Why name bacK, k instead of b?
Why refer to Red as R, instead of Rear as R?

But unfortunately, as you can deduce, the depth of my understanding is
limited to such "peculiarities". <grin>
