Verify your finished pattern

Read each labelled character group in order, then decode the complete copied pattern. Check that it returns DELTA, including any word spaces. In a physical layout, decorative spacers should be distinct from signal marks. The diagram illustrates grouping; it does not specify bead sizes or guarantee how a printed or permanent design will reproduce.

Keep each letter’s marks together, put a space between letters, and use / between words. Check the writing guide for accepted input and the timing reference for playback.
