The animation below "counts" counterclockwise, starting from ( 1, 0 ), along the four, eight, twelve and twenty-four part circles.
In radians, the count is multiplied by the size of the common arclength "piece". When reduced, locations positioned at the same place along the circle will have the same arclength value.
In degrees, the count is multiplied by the size of the common central angle. When expanded, locations positioned at the same place along the circle will have the same degree measure.
