Re: No-Frills Curve Sketches

Greetings all,
Though I haven't written any such thing Im fairly positive Erudil has. Have a look at How to (ab)use substr and the spoiler SPOILER! (Guildenstern)Re: How to (ab)use substr for ideas on how to go about doing something similar (?: yes I realize this is an obfus post but perhaps you can harvest some of the ideas and methodologies). Who knows maybe you can roll it into an ascii graphing module for CPAN?

Speaking of which did you try CPAN? (which, as a good rule of thumb is a good place to start :)

Yes, CPAN was the first stop on this particular quest, however it seems the requested functionality is far too trivial, or the search effort wasn't up to snuff, as there does not appear to be anything on CPAN that quite fits the bill. Really all I am looking for is a group of standard functions like you can find with a msft Excel spreadsheet, that lets you plot out a few datapoints (like you can with a spreadsheet) all within the confines of perl.

Greetings again, A not so quick search pulled up Text::Graph which might help get you part of the way there. I would be interested to see what exactly you come up with in terms of your solution, Im sure there are people who would use it. HTH. -injunjoel "I do not feel obliged to believe that the same God who endowed us with sense, reason and intellect has intended us to forego their use." -Galileo	[reply]
