GCELL_ARRAY(3NCARG)

✨ GCELL_ARRAY ✨

okay bestie, welcome to the NCAR GRAPHICS corner of the universe 🎀 this little guy lives in section 3NCARG and its whole personality is: draw a rectangle, chop it up, colour it in. no cap.

💖 NAME 💖

gcell_array — draw a Cell array from two corner points 🦋

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

gcell_array (Cell array) — so here's the vibe: it draws a cell array, and it starts with a rectangle that you specify using two corner points. then that initial rectangle gets subdivided into subrectangles by specifying an arbitrary number of divisions in the X and Y directions. each subrectangle (or cell) gets assigned a color and is drawn with that color. that's it, that's the whole job, and honestly? iconic. 💅

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

#include <ncarg/gks.h>

void gcell_array(const Grect *rect, const Gpat_rep *colr_array);

🎀 DESCRIPTION (the details era) 🎀

• rect.p.x — (Gfloat, Input) — X world coordinate of point 1. 📍
• rect.p.y — (Gfloat, Input) — Y world coordinate of point 1. 📍
• rect.q.x — (Gfloat, Input) — X world coordinate of point 2. 📍
• rect.q.y — (Gfloat, Input) — Y world coordinate of point 2. 📍
• colr_array.dims.size_x — (Gint, Input) — X dimension of the color index array colr_array.colr_array. 🧮
• colr_array.dims.size_y — (Gint, Input) — Y dimension of the color index array colr_array.colr_array. 🧮
• colr_array.colr_array — (Gint *, Input) — an array of color indices, dimensioned colr_array.dims.size_x by colr_array.dims.size_y, which is used to determine the color of each cell drawn. 🌈 this is literally the whole colour palette of your little grid, so treat it with respect, fr fr.

🌟 USAGE 🌟

Points 1 and 2 must be diagonally opposite corner points of a rectangle. that rectangle then gets divided into colr_array.dims.size_x cells in the X dimension and colr_array.dims.size_y cells in the Y dimension. diagonal besties only, no adjacent-corner nonsense 🙈

🫶 ACCESS 🫶

to use the GKS C-binding routines, load the ncarg_gks and ncarg_c libraries. that's the entry fee, bestie, pay it. 💸
