n-way turn
The n-way turn converts input into n sets
of output.
The n-th output set is given every
n-th octet of input data:
- the 1st input octet is placed into the 1st output set
- the 2nd input octet is placed into the 2nd output set
- ...
- the n+1-th octet is added to the end of the 1st output set
- the n+2-th octet is added to the end of the 2nd output set
- ...
- the 2*n+1-th octet is added to the end of the 1st output set
- the 2*n+2-th octet is added to the end of the 2nd output set
- ... and so on until all input octets are processed
For example, in a 5-way turn, each of the 5 sets picks up every 5th input
value.
A 5-way turn on the following input:
00 01 02 03 04 05 06 07 08 09 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19
would produce these 5 sets:
00 05 10 15
01 06 11 16
02 07 12 17
03 08 13 18
04 09 14 19
