Tupper's Self-Referential Formula

J. Tupper concocted the amazing formula
where
is the floor function and
is the mod function, which, when graphed over
and
with
gives the self-referential "plot" illustrated above.
Tupper's formula can be generalized to other desired outcomes. For example, L. Garron (pers. comm.) has constructed generalizations for
to 29.
