SHIPPOU Posted November 22, 2007 Share Posted November 22, 2007 I was looking threw a website reading off how to make "hello world" in a lot of different languages, and I ran across an oddity. Piet popped out of the pages. It's the only programming language I've ever seen that uses colors and color blocks to wright code. There is not one single character used in it, it is all colored pixels. I must say, the art it createsis interesting to look at. What do you thinck? ********** One of the old guard of RS.

Errdoth Posted November 22, 2007 Share Posted November 22, 2007 I think I came across that page a while ago too =) It would be pretty cool if you could actually read that. That'd bring awesome bragging rights. I'll stick with php for now. At least it uses letters =) Last.fm Signature Overlays Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jordanweb Posted November 22, 2007 Share Posted November 22, 2007 It's so very pointless. Confusing too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nadril Posted November 22, 2007 Share Posted November 22, 2007 Hah that's so strange. Really cool though -- I could only imagine the difficulties of programming with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Errdoth Posted November 22, 2007 Share Posted November 22, 2007 Hah that's so strange. Really cool though -- I could only imagine the difficulties of programming with it. If you could find a reason to program with it in the first place =) Last.fm Signature Overlays Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pryomancer Posted November 22, 2007 Share Posted November 22, 2007 How cool would that look on an application to an art college? 'Oh yea, I programme with pixels 8-). It's in my blood.' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you could find a reason to program with it in the first place =) For cool points. :thumbsup: Ok.. so I wouldn't be that cool. I wonder though, if I just made a filter pile in photoshop and passed it through that program -- maybe I'd come up with the next doom or something. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SHIPPOU Posted November 23, 2007 Author Share Posted November 23, 2007 You know how big the image would be? Hehe. From what I can tell it it uses bits type of coding. Can any one find a user's manual for it? I haven't been able to find one =-( ********** One of the old guard of RS.
