OCA:HighLife/List of common oscillators
The printable version is no longer supported and may have rendering errors. Please update your browser bookmarks and please use the default browser print function instead.
This is a list of the most common oscillators in HighLife, specifically Catagolue's B36/S23/C1 census. The patterns in this table beyond row 17 are only approximately ranked, as they all occur very infrequently so it is difficult to generate accurate estimates of their occurrence. The approximate relative frequency column gives an estimate of the proportion of all randomly-occurring oscillators that will be of the given type. Proper names for objects are taken from Catagolue where applicable; the apgcode of the object is substituted otherwise.
