Abstract

Tupper's formula 12<mod(y17217xmod(y,17),2)\frac{1}{2}<\bigg\lfloor \bmod \bigg(\lfloor \frac{y}{17}\rfloor 2^{-17\lfloor x \rfloor -\bmod (\lfloor y \rfloor,17)},2\bigg)\bigg\rfloor has an interesting property that for any monochrome image that can be represented by pixels in a two dimensional array of dimensions 106×17106\times 17, there exists a natural number kk such that the graph of the equation in the range 0x<1060\leq x <106 and ky<k+17k\leq y<k+17, is that image. In this paper, we give a generalization for mm colours and nn dimensions. We give mm formulae consisting of nn free variables, with the property that, for any nn dimensional object of mm colours C1,,CmC_1,\cdots, C_m, that can be represented by hypervoxels(multidimensional analogue of pixel) in a nn dimensional array of dimensions A1××AnA_1\times \cdots \times A_n, there exists a natural number kk such that, when the first formula is graphed using colour C1C_1, second formula is graphed using colour C2C_2,\cdots, mmth formula is graphed using colour CmC_m in the range 0x1<A10\leq x_1<A_1,0x2<A2,,0xn1<An1,kxn<k+An0\leq x_2<A_2,\cdots, 0\leq x_{n-1}<A_{n-1},k\leq x_n <k+A_n, the union of all graphs is that nn-dimensional object.
