without recursion, random, modulus, division or even a while loop!
Code: [Select]
'Sier Carpet v3.bas SmallBASIC 0.12.2 [B+=MGA] 2016-02-13

sq=512
s=2
stepper=2*s
start=1
lc=0
label doloop
  for x=start to sq step stepper
    for y=start to sq step stepper
      rect x,y,x+s,y+s,rgb(0,lc*15+128,0) filled
    next
  next
  start=start+s
  s=2*s
  stepper=2*stepper
  lc=lc+1
if stepper<=sq then goto doloop
pause 'for snapshot

Here is more carpet like symmetry:
Code: [Select]
'Symmetric Sier Carpet v3.bas SmallBASIC 0.12.2 [B+=MGA] 2016-02-13

sq=512
s=2
stepper=2*s
start=1
lc=0
label doloop
  for x=start to sq step stepper
    for y=start to sq step stepper
      c=rgb(lc*15+128,0,0)
      rect x,y,x+s,y+s,c filled
      d=512-x
      dy=512-y
      rect 1024-d-s,y step s,s,c filled
      rect x,1024-dy-s step s,s,c filled
      rect 1024-d-s,1024-dy-s step s,s,c filled
    next
  next
  start=start+s
  s=2*s
  stepper=2*stepper
  lc=lc+1
if stepper<=sq then goto doloop
pause 'for snapshot

Hi Mark,

It looks like step can be used to increment a variable as well as the traditional FOR keyword in SmallBASIC.

Hi John,

Imaginative idea, but STEP is used in SmallBASIC for LINE or RECT as relative position to first x,y pair given as opposed to absolute screen coordinates.
absolute: RECT x1,y1,x2,y2
or relative: RECT x1,y1 STEP width, height

Has a BBC plot smell to it.  :)

Also might sense old QB as well.
