PARI's commands - Page 116

Code:

mt(i,j=i)= for(x=1,i,for(n=1,j,print1(x*n"\t"));print(""))

is my best idea so far shortens the name and if a variable is missing it knows they are equal so to get to a square we only need one input.

the trouble comes when the width is more than one page. seems to print to 20,20 perfectly any higher next thing that shows up is the last one.

You used "Mat" instead of "matrix".

Yep, works pretty well.

That's a limitation of the terminal. If you want bigger tables, or better-looking tables, I recommend using write() and write1() to create an HTML file which you can display in a browser. Something like this:

Code:

table(h,w)={
  write("output.html", "<!doctype html>");
  write("output.html", "<html><head><meta charset='utf-8'><title>Multiplication</title></head>");
  write("output.html", "<body><table>");
  for(i=1,h,
    write1("output.html", "<tr>");
    for(j=1,w,
      write1("output.html", "<td>", i*j, "</td>")
    );
    write("output.html", "</tr>");
  );
  write("output.html", "</table></body></html>");
};

    write("output.html", "</tr>");

};

I may make it more efficient I tested it twice in a row and it was going about 452.5 bits/s = baud ? each time.

CRGreathouse · 2010-08-31, 21:45

The inefficiency comes from opening and closing the file for every write1() statement. You might get more speed by creating a string with the whole row, then writing that; I'm not sure.

What's sm88 trying to do?

science_man_88 · 2010-08-31, 22:25

Code:

mt(i,j=i)=for(n=1,i,v=vector(j,x,n*x);write1("E:\\output.txt",v);write("E:\\output.txt","\n"))

this seems nice to me though it's a .txt (still able to open in a browser(well dah)) and writes at a rate of about 5881.4 bits/s = baud ? . For someone with so many programming books I sure suck lol, lets see: Dynamic html (useful to remember Pari's escape characters), Advanced MS-DOS (don't know if i have much use for it as it's the 1986 edition I think). Advanced Programming in the Unix environment (didn't check title until later and did nothing),the art of assembly language 2nd edition,and I think "Beginning Programming all in one desk reference for dummies" is the last one.

He's writing a multiplication table -- at first to the terminal, now to a file. I don't know his underlying motivation, but since this teaches valuable tools (matrices, file I/O) I'm not really concerned.

Yes, it's faster since it's writing a whole row at a time. Pari's file I/O performance is bad -- actually there's been an outstanding 'todo' on that particular feature for a while (some suggested a "t_FILE" type to avoid this performance penalty).

You'll learn programming faster than I did when I started, since I was younger than you are now, when I started. Just remember that while books can help, you can only learn programming by doing. You can read a dozen books about how to read a bike, the physics of bike-riding, etc. without learning to ride.

Ok. When A180362 shows up, I'll edit it to add

%H A180362 Charles R Greathouse IV, <a href="b180362.txt">Table of n, a(n) for n = 1..10000</a>

and whatever else it may need. Did you already put the cross-refs in?

it's up, and doesn't look like he did.
