Usage

Cascade

Minimum prop #: 3

Difficulty: 2/10 (note: difficulty ratings are arbitrary and subject to change)

Siteswap: 3

Shannon: 12

Period: 3

Notes: symmetrical, asynchronous

{{Infobox juggling pattern}} (see: juggling pattern) is a game infobox template on Wikipedia, and so should be placed at the top of an article, providing the reader with condensed information regarding the topic.

Variables

Parameter	Info
juggling pattern	Name of the juggling pattern. If name is unknown siteswap may be used instead.
minimum	Minimum number of balls needed to perform the pattern. For example, a cascade requires at least three props, but may be done with any odd number of props.
difficulty	How hard the juggling pattern is. It would be great to compile ratings as articles about musical works do.
siteswap	Siteswap is a juggling notation.
Shannon	The number produced by Claude Shannon's juggling theorem.
period	The period of a juggling pattern is the sum of the siteswap numbers divided by the number of balls, thus 423 has a period of (4+2+3)/3 = 9/3 = 3.
synchronicity	Whether the pattern is synchronous (simultaneous throws/catches in both hands), asynchronous (no simultaneous throws/catches in both hands), or either.
symmetry	Whether the pattern is symmetrical (patterns whose siteswap length is an odd number, for example 423 has three numbers and is thus symmetrical), asymmetrical (patterns whose siteswap length is an even number), or either (such as columns).
