Hi all,
I was reading through the manual and noticed the PIXEL command allows either a single value or arrays to be passed into it to draw pixels. Would it be fair to assume using the array version of it is faster than calling the command separately every time?
When trying to use it I wasn't quite sure how it would work. Here's a tiny program that I expected to work. Your help is much appreciated!
Mx.
mode 3, 16
dim integer x(1) = (0, 10) dim integer y(1) = (20, 30)
color rgb(green) pixel x, y
do loop

Like all commands when passing arrays you need brackets on the variable
mode 3, 16
dim integer x(1) = (0, 10) dim integer y(1) = (20, 30)
color rgb(green) pixel x(), y()
do loop
Most drawing commands allow arrays and it can make a HUGE difference to performance Edited 2020-08-03 21:19 by matherp
