[Pythoncard-users] Help drawing a boolean Numerical array?

[Andrew P <gr...@gm...>]

Hello,

I have a program that spits out an array like:

[[1 1 1 1 0]
[1 1 1 0 0]
[0 1 0 0 0]
[0 0 1 0 1]
[1 1 0 0 0]]

Does anybody have a suggestion about the quickest way to draw this?

I'm really very new at this. I'm just trying to avoid looping over each
element in the array to create a new array with RGB values, since I want to
have this animate as it draws, and scroll. This is for cellular automata, i=
n
case anybody cares :)

I've tried this in the debugger shell with a 100x100 array:

>>>img =3D wx.EmptyImage(100,100)
>>>img.SetData(a.tostring())

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<input>", line 1, in ?
File "C:\Python24\Lib\site-packages \wx-2.6-msw-unicode\wx\_core.py", line
2652, in SetData
return _core_.Image_SetData(*args, **kwargs)
ValueError: Invalid data buffer size.

I saw the drawPointList method, but I don't see a way to get from a 2D arra=
y
to a what looks like a list of x,y pairs? Is that what it wants? Something
like [[0,1],[0,2],[0,4]] instead of [0,1,1,0,1]? Either way, that doesn't
seem like a very direct method coming from an array, but I could be way off
here. I don't see a way to quickly get to that point tho.

Thanks for any help,

Andrew
