November 22, 200718 yr 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. RS birthday = Feb - 27 - 2002 Proud member of the original forum.**********
November 22, 200718 yr 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
November 22, 200718 yr Hah that's so strange. Really cool though -- I could only imagine the difficulties of programming with it.
November 22, 200718 yr 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
November 22, 200718 yr How cool would that look on an application to an art college? 'Oh yea, I programme with pixels 8-). It's in my blood.'
November 23, 200718 yr 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 =) 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
November 23, 200718 yr Author 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. RS birthday = Feb - 27 - 2002 Proud member of the original forum.**********
November 24, 200718 yr wow thats really something... I'm currently learning how to program Visual Basic and that piet thing... it boggles my mind
