Vanilla siteswap

Creates a vanilla siteswap object from an alphanumeric siteswap sequence such as "531" or "97531". Vanilla siteswap describes solo juggling patterns where one prop is thrown per beat, alternating hands.

Usage

vanillaSiteswap(sequence = character(0))

Arguments

sequence

A single character string of vanilla siteswap notation (digits and letters only, e.g. "531").

Value

A vanillaSiteswap S7 object.

Additional properties

@type

Always "vanilla" (read-only).

@throws

Integer vector of throw heights for one cycle.

@period

Number of throws per cycle (length of throws).

@symmetry

"symmetrical" when period is odd (pattern repeats with swapped hands); "asymmetrical" when period is even.

@n_props

Mean throw height, equal to the number of props required.

@can_throw

TRUE if no two throws land on the same beat (no collisions).

@satisfies_average_theorem

TRUE if n_props is a whole number.

@valid

TRUE if both can_throw and satisfies_average_theorem are TRUE.

Examples

vanillaSiteswap("531")
#> ✔ '531' is valid vanilla siteswap
#> ℹ It uses 3 props
#> ℹ It is symmetrical with period 3
vanillaSiteswap("97531")
#> ✔ '97531' is valid vanilla siteswap
#> ℹ It uses 5 props
#> ℹ It is symmetrical with period 5

s <- vanillaSiteswap("531")
s@n_props
#> [1] 3
s@valid
#> [1] TRUE
