2Authored explanation
A finite functional graph has one directed cycle in each weak component. The complete width-24 inventory contains 49 cycles, hence 49 weak components. Their lengths sum to 194,991, so that many of the 16,777,216 states are cyclic. Three cycles are fixed points. The maximum global indegree is three.
For a compact check, each cycle is represented by the least integer on that cycle and its length. Sort these 49 pairs by representative and then length. Serialize each unsigned 32-bit integer as four little-endian bytes, with the representative first, and apply 64-bit FNV-1a starting at `14695981039346656037`. The resulting digest is `8bb15c98ca3aeadf`. Both exhaustive algorithms produce this digest and agree on every pair before it is computed.
