I can't figure out what it's supposed to do. Do you have more code?
There is definitely a regular relationship as the code below shows.
But what is that relationship used for?


<?php
echo '<table border="1" cellspacing="5" cellpadding="5">';
echo '<tr><th>$x</th><th>$y</th><th>$x % pow(2, $y)</th><th>pow(2,
$y-1)</th>';
echo
'<th>1</th><th>2</th><th>3</th><th>4</th><th>5</th><th>6</th><th>7</th>';
echo '<th>8</th><th>9</th><th>10</th></tr>';
for ($x=1; $x<=pow(2, 10); $x++) {
for ($y=1; $y<=10; $y++) {

$xcmp = $x % pow(2, $y);
$ycmp = pow(2, $y-1);
if ($xcmp == $ycmp) {
echo "<tr><td>$x</td><td>$y</td><td
align=\"center\">".$xcmp."</td>";
echo "<td align=\"center\">".$ycmp."</td>";
for ($i=1; $i<=10; $i++){
if ($i == $ycmp) echo "<td>X</td>";
else echo "<td>&nbsp</td>";
}
echo "</tr>";
}
}
}
echo '</table>';
?>
