Reference:Spiral2 Pattern
The spiral2 pattern creates a double spiral that winds around
the z-axis similar to spiral1 except that it has two overlapping spirals
which twist in opposite directions. The result sometimes looks like a basket
weave or perhaps the skin of pineapple. The center of a sunflower also has a
similar double spiral pattern. Its syntax is:
pigment {
spiral2 Number_of_Arms
[PIGMENT_MODIFIERS...]
}
The Number_of_Arms value determines how may arms are
winding around the z-axis. As a normal pattern, the syntax is
normal {
spiral2 Number_of_Arms [, Bump_Size]
[NORMAL_MODIFIERS...]
}
where the Number_of_Arms value is a required
parameter but the float Bump_Size which follows is
optional.
Note: The comma is required especially if Bump_Size is negative. The pattern uses the triangle_wave wave type by default but may use any wave type.
