Description
Numberphile just posted a video explaining the trapped knight. An infinitely large chess board is numbered in a counter clockwise fashion so you end up with something like this...
5 4 3 ....
6 1 2 11
7 8 9 10
The knight starts on 1 and moves to the square of the smallest value. This continues until the knight is no longer able to move. A sequence is formed from this,
1, 10, 3, 6, 9, 4, 7, 2, 5, 8....
A p5.js visualization of the path would be neat to see. They show the path in the video. Other configurations of chessboards would be interesting to see as well.
