This example introduces the concept of hexagon orientation. When a hexagonal grid is built, different orientation can be choosen. The layout can be represented using hexagons oriented with the flat side up or the pointy side up. The first orientation is called horizontal or pointy-side-up while the second vertical or flat-side-up ([1], [2], [3]).
Differently from the previous experiment, the hexagons are keept pointy-side-up and no rotation is applied to them. Moreover, the scale of the haxagons is not depending on the order but it is just fixed.
