Balls! Pt 3

Apologies for posting two in a row.
just did this:

         s''openZF,"   
       >o.bmp";printZF        
      Zpack("a2V13",BM,  
     37686,0,54,40,112,11 
    2,1572865,0,37632),map 
    {chr(($_%112-55)**2+($ 
    _/112-55)**2<3025?255- 
    3*(($_/112-75)**2+($_% 
     112-75)**2)**.5:0)x3  
      }0..12544';s#\s##g   
        ;s#Z# #g;eval

hope you like it.

updates:
As L~R mentions - check for o.bmp;
~~also i've gently obfuscated it - otherwise it probably didn't belong here!~~
I've reformatted it to fit my balls format - this one is another ball shorter! (see the others here and here)
(and renamed to fit in with my balls naming scheme!)
change L to V in pack to force little endianness - this should fix some viewers. (from londonpm email thread).

teamster_jr, Very impressive but you might want to mention that you need to look at the outputted file (o.bmp) to see the results. Cheers - L~R	[reply]

Very cool! I missed this when you posted it somehow, and just stumbled onto it now. teamstr_jr, you are the master of direct manipulation of file formats! s''(q.S:$/9=(T1';s;(..)(..);$..=substr+crypt($1,$2),2,3;eg;print$..$/	[reply]

did you use pov-ray to generate the sphere? very cool! `perl -Te 'print map { chr((ord)-((10,20,2,7)[$i++])) } split //,"turo"'`	[reply] [d/l]

Neither my Picture Viewer or Photoshop can view the bmp. What's it supposed to look like?	[reply]

xv, firefox or ie should all work. ms paint seems a bit funny - i've probably got a data border or a header value wrong somewhere. alex	[reply]

ah! In a londonpm mailing list conversation someone pointed out it should be "V" not "L" in pack - force it into little endianness. The above post is updated. al	[reply]

no, it's not. I think i might have got one of the header values wrong - so the image data is read too far in - causing it to wrap. Or it may be an endian problem if it was run before i fixed that. alex	[reply]
