Second, the 0-based indexing scheme must remain synchronized with the 1-based indexing scheme
shown in the Pattern Number column. So there are only 172 distinct fill patterns whose indexes
range from 1 to 172. The programmatic fill pattern at index 0 was added to give a definition for that
index's element.

You will notice that the first eight fill patterns have the same Index Number and Pattern
Number. Subsequently, the Pattern Number is always three greater than the corresponding
Index Number (and hence the Pattern Numbering sequence goes up to 175 while the Index
Numbering stops at 172). This is not an error. There are still 172 unique fill patterns. Nothing
is missing from the table.
