I would add that it would probably be better to encode them
in an order that lists the larger number first. i.e., 0-0, 1-0, 1-1,
2-0, 2-1, 2-2, 3-0, etc. so that if at a later date it is determined
that an even larger set of dominoes needs to be encoded
than the one that is first encoded the number of discontinuities
is an ordered listing of the dominoes is kept to at most one
per time additional dominoes are added.
