There are 324 stars in Q20 - VViews - 26-10-2017 The text only section in Q20 features 324 stars in the margins. The breakdown per folio is the following - 1st number: total stars per folio - 2nd and 3rd numbers in parentheses: number of these stars to which red paint has been applied (fully red stars/red center only): 103r: 19 (7/0) 103v: 14 (0/7) 104r: 13 (5/2) 104v: 13 (0/7) 105r: 10 (0/6) 105v: 10 (0/5) 106r: 16 (0/8) 106v: 14 (0/7) 107r: 15 (0/8) 107v: 15 (0/8) 108r: 16 (5/0) 108v: 16 (0/8) 109-110 missing 111r: 17 (0/9) 111v: 19 (0/10) 112r: 12 (0/6) 112v: 13 (0/7) 113r: 16 (0/8) 113v: 15 (0/8) 114r: 13 (0/7) 114v: 12 (0/6) 115r: 13 (0/7) 115v: 13 (0/7) 116r: 10 (0/5) Total stars: 324 Total stars to which red paint has been applied: 163 (17/146) RE: There are 324 stars in Q20 - Koen G - 26-10-2017 Sure I agree RE: There are 324 stars in Q20 - MarcoP - 27-10-2017 I agree about the 324 total, but I count 7 red stars in f114r, hence a total of 163 red stars. RE: There are 324 stars in Q20 - VViews - 27-10-2017 Hi MarcoP, are you sure you mean f114r? I did count 7 red stars there (this is just a copy/paste of the count I did in the Counting Things thread)... Did you mean another folio?

RE: There are 324 stars in Q20 - Anton - 28-10-2017 I remember we discussed my own count somewhere in the forum. Does it match? If yes, then you have my vote RE: There are 324 stars in Q20 - VViews - 28-10-2017 Hi Anton, I believe you are referring to this You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login to view. you made, opening a thread named "The "Recipe" Section"... and yes, our counts do indeed match! It is also interesting to me that you note there that: "I counted 324 stars in total in 23 Recipe section pages. However, 2 folios (=4 pages) are lost, so we must count for that. The mean star count per folio would be 324/23 = 14,09, so the estimation of the total count in the Recipe section would be 14,09*(23+4) = 380 stars." Of course, that figure is hypothetical rather than something we can count and verify, but I wanted to highlight it here anyway. RE: There are 324 stars in Q20 - Anton - 28-10-2017 Well, but was is meant by "red" stars? There are stars full-painted red and stars which have only a red circle in the centre. So, full-painted or both? RE: There are 324 stars in Q20 - VViews - 29-10-2017 Hello Anton, Good point, I'll edit my post to replace "red stars" with "stars to which red paint has been applied", and further add a distinction between the fully red ones and those which only have red in their center. ETA: Here is an interesting You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login to view. by Elmar Vogt, with his own page-by-page count of the stars in Q20. Strangely, he counts one more star than Anton and I do on EACH page. No disrespect to Elmar Vogt intended here, but I am certain he has miscounted: in his post, he develops some very interesting thoughts about the pattern of painted/unpainted stars, and shows the correct number of them, visually, using his "-xO" system. However, his totals for each page are incorrect. |
