What do we conclude?
There is a limited number of combinations of 1âs and 0âs on each line, and since each line is determined by the previous line, the pattern must repeat. Thus, chaos is impossible.
However, it is obvious that the period of repetition generally increases as the width of the gasket increases. Thus, once the width gets significantly large, chaos will be emulated.
It does not seem possible to determine exactly what a line will given only the line number and width. It seems necessary to know the previous line.
Patterns were observed in the length of the period given the width, however the pattern is quite complicated and seems to have discrepancies.
