Map 705 Solo Man's Temple Game of 36 Triangles


C - Blue   T - Orange   G - Yellow   A - Green 

This is a game,  Solo Man's Temple, that has four triangles of colour or letters that make up a combination of 64 different 3 part patterns of DNA. The plan is to create a triangular pattern in which you can read all 64 codes. You can read the patterns in any direction, therefore the 64 codes are reduced to 40 because TGC reads CGT backwards and therefore would be duplicated. The name of the game is to make the smallest pattern you can that contains all possible 3 part codes.

All sizes containing all codes is still a pass but if you can reduce it to the minimum of 36 triangles that is currently the best score possible. 

This is an example of a pattern made up of 36 triangles obviously they can vary every time.

The list below is the 40 combinations or Codons of DNA that are required to be found in the pattern.


CCC CCT CTC CTT TCT TTT
CCA CCG CTA CTG TCA TCG TTA TTG
CAC CAT CGC CGT TAT TGT
 CAA CAG CGA CGG TAA TAG TGA TGG
ACA ACG ATA ATG GCG GTG
AAA AAG AGA AGG GAG GGG


Enjoy trying and if you manage a smaller pattern than 36 please do let me know. x
