Integer lattice

Approximations of regular pentagrams with vertices on a square lattice with coordinates indicated
Rational approximants of irrational values can be mapped to points lying close to lines having gradients corresponding to the values

In mathematics, the n-dimensional integer lattice (or cubic lattice), denoted , is the lattice in the Euclidean space whose lattice points are n-tuples of integers. The two-dimensional integer lattice is also called the square lattice, or grid lattice. is the simplest example of a root lattice. The integer lattice is an odd unimodular lattice.
