A class for spaceing a number of ones over a range of zeros as evenly as possible using the Euclidean algorithm.

For more information on using the Euclidean algorithm in the context of music, please read: The Euclidean Algorithm Generates Traditional Musical Rhythms by Godfried Toussaint.

Special thanks to Wesen for bringing Euclidean sequencing to my attention and forging the way using Lisp.

Usage:

Command Line:

$> ./bin/euclidean_sequence --help

Ruby:

require "./lib/sequencer.rb"
pulses = 8
hits = 5
p Sequencer.generate(hits: hits ,pulses: pulses, options: {array: true, offset: 2})

Oontz!
