The four cells, and the two measures in each
The four cells, and the two measures in each
Runs of the transform and phrases of the parse, per character, on 8,192 characters arranged four ways. The top row is prose and the bottom is 16 near-copies of one base; the left column is one text and the right is that text cut into 16 documents with a separator between them. Everything the repetition strand measured is the bottom left cell and everything the document strand measured is the top right; the bottom right is the one nothing here had filled. Cutting the repetitive text raises r/n from 0.0638 to 0.0768 — 1.20x — and cutting prose raises it from 0.2996 to 0.3053. Those two factors are the subject of the next plate, and they do not come out in the expected order.

collection-corners. The drawing above is what it returns with no arguments at all; every
call below passes it something, because a placement that passes nothing draws whichever
member of the family the generator happens to default to rather than the one its essay
argues about — which is what optcheck and figfill exist to catch.
