As mentioned on page ??, the grid revealed through 10 PRINT is not inherent in the program, it's an artifact of the defaults of the C64. Counter to the visual result, the output of 10 PRINT is linear, a one-dimensional stream of diagonal lines that is forced to wrap when there's no room left on screen. After the fortieth character is printed to the screen, the next line is forced to start one line down. | As mentioned on page ??, the grid revealed through 10 PRINT is not inherent in the program, it's an artifact of the defaults of the C64.
