In combinatorial mathematics, a De Bruijn torus, named after Dutch mathematician Nicolaas Govert de Bruijn, is an array of symbols from an alphabet (often just 0 and 1) that contains every possible matrix of given dimensions m × n exactly once. It is a torus because the edges are considered wraparound for the purpose of finding matrices.
