Given that:

    NODE = node number of this node.
    MASK = (2**(dimension of cube)) - 1.

Using these routines:

    bin_grey(n) int n; { return(n ^ (n >> 1)); }
    grey_bin(n) int n; { int i; for(i = n; n >>= 1; i ^= n); return(i); }

To make a ring:

    preceeding node = bin_grey( ( grey_bin(NODE) - 1 ) & MASK );
    suceeding node  = bin_grey( ( grey_bin(NODE) + 1 ) & MASK );
