Abstract

In Theorem 6.1 of McSorley et al. [3] it was shown that, when v=r+c−1, every triple array TA(v,k rr cc ,k:r× c) is a balanced grid BG(v,k,k:r × c). Here we prove the converse of this Theorem. Our final result is: Let v=r+c−1. Then every triple array is a TA(v,k,ck,rk,k:r× c) and every balanced grid is a BG(v,k,k:r× c), and they are equivalent.
