boustrophedon
Interesting word. Came across this word while reading about popular halftoning algorithms. Here is what it means:
boustrophedon - An ancient method of writing in which the lines are inscribed alternately from right to left and from left to right.
Apparently halftoning algorithms improve greatly if images are processed in a boustrophedonic pattern instead of simple scanlines…
