#N Orthogonal sawtooth with expansion factor 21
#O Dean Hickerson, drhickerson@ucdavis.edu 4/10/91
#C Population is unbounded but does not tend to infinity.
#C Its graph is a sawtooth function with ever-increasing
#C teeth. More specifically, the population in
#C generation t = 18*21^n + 222 (n>=0), is
#C 7t/60 + 1290, but the population in generation
#C 6*21^n + 193 (n>=1) is only 1212. This uses a spark
#C from a c/3 orthogonal spaceship ("turtle") to turn a
#C HWSS into a loaf, which is then pulled back by pairs
#C of LWSSs. When the loaf is pulled all the way back,
#C another HWSS is fired toward the c/3, starting the
#C cycle again. The HWSS synthesis, using 2 gliders, a
#C Kok's galaxy, and a figure 8, is due to David
#C Buckingham. This was the first sawtooth built.
