Delete all instances of the axial step '''u'''<sub>'''x'''</sub> and consider what the two remaining step sizes do to the '''w'''-coordinate.

Without loss of generality assume that {{nowrap|'''u'''<sub>'''y'''</sub> {{=}} (''b'', ''c''), ''c'' > 0,}} and  {{nowrap|'''u'''<sub>'''z'''</sub> {{=}} (''b'', ''c'' - ''n'').}} As the '''v'''-coordinates of both vectors are equal, we only need to look at the '''w'''-coordinate. Since the '''w'''-coordinate of a point must stay within {{nowrap|[0 : ''n''],}} at any point it must follow the rule: "If the current '''w'''-coordinate + c &ge; ''n'', then move by ''c'' - ''n'' units (using the letter '''z'''). Otherwise, move by ''c'' units (using the letter '''y''')."
