A Tridimensional Hilbert-like Curve defined with {X2(...),Y2(...),Z2(...)} and based on an 'open' 3-foil torus knot -iteration 2- [Une courbe tridimensionnelle du type Hilbert définie avec {X2(...),Y2(...),Z2(...)} et basé sur un nœud '3-trèfle' torique 'ouvert' -itération 2-].
The tridimensional Hilbert Curves:
Let's C1(T) being
a parametric curve
defined by means of 3 real functions of T
(T ∈ [0,1])
X1(T) ∈ [0,1], Y1(T) ∈ [0,1] and Z1(T) ∈ [0,1]
such as
:
X1(T=0)=0 Y1(T=0)=0 Z1(T=0)=0 (lower left foreground corner)
X1(T=1)=1 Y1(T=1)=0 Z1(T=1)=0 (lower right foreground corner)
Then one defines a sequence of curves Ci(T) (i >= 1) as follows
:
Ci(T) = {Xi(T),Yi(T),Zi(T)} ∈ [0,1]x[0,1]x[0,1] --> Ci+1(T) = {Xi+1(T),Yi+1(T),Zi+1(T)} ∈ [0,1]x[0,1]x[0,1]

Xi+1(T) = 1-Zi(8T-6)
Yi+1(T) = 1+Yi(8T-6)
Zi+1(T) = 2-Xi(8T-6)
Transformation 7
if T ∈ [7/8,1]:
Xi+1(T) = Xi(8T-7)
Yi+1(T) = 1-Zi(8T-7)
Zi+1(T) = 2-Yi(8T-7)
