&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;New page&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div&gt;This page is about sequences that takes 6th root of unity as values. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The longest sequence with discrepancy 1 has length 116.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Method==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Here should be a short description of the way the sequence was found. (The code(s) used should be further down this page.)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Status ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Is the data still relevant (e.g. longest know)? Is the method still relevant, or have we found a better method? Is the program still running on a computer somewhere? &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== The data==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If the &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;x_n&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; are allowed to be any of the six points of a regular hexagon, and one requires all sums along HAPs to be zero or one of those same points, the maximum length of a sequence is &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;116&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. The following sequence achieves this, where the numbers index the points in order around the hexagon:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
 -, 0, 3, 3, 0, 3, 0, 2, 4, 0, 1, 4, 3,&lt;br /&gt;
 1, 5, 0, 2, 4, 3, 1, 5, 5, 1, 4, 1, 2,&lt;br /&gt;
 5, 3, 2, 5, 4, 1, 4, 1, 2, 5, 0, 2, 4,&lt;br /&gt;
 4, 1, 5, 2, 1, 4, 3, 1, 5, 5, 2, 4, 1,&lt;br /&gt;
 2, 4, 0, 1, 5, 4, 1, 4, 2, 2, 4, 0, 1,&lt;br /&gt;
 5, 4, 2, 5, 1, 2, 4, 3, 1, 5, 5, 1, 4,&lt;br /&gt;
 1, 3, 4, 2, 1, 0, 4, 1, 4, 3, 1, 5, 0,&lt;br /&gt;
 2, 4, 5, 2, 4, 1, 1, 5, 3, 2, 0, 3, 4,&lt;br /&gt;
 5, 1, 1, 3, 4, 1, 5, 0, 2, 4, 1, 3, 5&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Here are some of its HAP subseqences, which seem to show the presence of some kind of multiplicative structure, though the structure seems to degenerate as the sequences progress. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
====The 2-sequence====&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
3, 0, 0, 4, 1, 3, 5, 2, 3, 5, 1, 1, 5, 2, 4, 4, 2, 0, 4, 1, 2, 4, 1, 5, 4, 2, 0, 5, 1, 2, 4, 1, 4, 5, 2, 3, 5, 1, 1, 4, 1, 4, 4, 1, 0, 4, 2, 1, 5, 2, 3, 5, 1, 4, 5, 2, 1, 5&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
====The 3-sequence====&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
3, 0, 0, 3, 0, 3, 5, 1, 3, 4, 1, 0, 4, 2, 3, 5, 1, 0, 4, 2, 0, 4, 1, 3, 5, 1, 2, 4, 3, 0, 5, 1, 3, 3, 1, 4, 0, 1&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
====The 4-sequence====&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
0, 4, 3, 2, 5, 1, 2, 4, 0, 1, 4, 5, 2, 5, 2, 1, 5, 3, 1, 4, 4, 1, 4, 1, 2, 5, 4, 2, 5&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
====The 5-sequence====&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
3, 1, 0, 5, 2, 4, 5, 1, 3, 4, 1, 2, 5, 2, 5, 4, 1, 0, 4, 2, 1, 5, 3&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
====The 6-sequence====&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
0, 3, 3, 1, 4, 0, 2, 5, 0, 2, 4, 3, 1, 4, 0, 1, 3, 4, 1&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
====The 8-sequence====&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
4, 2, 1, 4, 1, 5, 5, 1, 3, 4, 1, 1, 5, 2&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
====The 9-sequence====&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
0, 3, 3, 0, 3, 0, 0, 3, 2, 0, 3, 4&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
====The 10-sequence====&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
1, 5, 4, 1, 4, 2, 2, 4, 0, 2, 5&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
====The 12-sequence====&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
3, 1, 0, 5, 2, 3, 4, 1, 4&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Relevant code ==&lt;br /&gt;
The code(s) (or a link to the code(s)) used to find this sequence should be posted here.&lt;/div&gt;</summary>
