Extend the array from step 1 by assigning 1 to the entries with (1-based) indices given by step 2.Compute the cumulative sum of the input and add 1.Specifically, this array is built as follows: Note how the length of runs of zeros is related to the input. So if the first input is (would be in the 0-based format) this array will be 1 0 1 1 0 0 0 1 1 0 0 1 1
#ASCII ART BOX CODE#
The code initially builds an array containing 1 for the column indices of non-space characters in the final result, and 0 otherwise. Uses inputs with 1 added (allowed by the challenge). This is code golf, so the shortest code in bytes win. The second example would then be: 2 3 2 3. You may optionally add 1 to all input values if that's more convenient.Only the boxes should be printed/displayed, but a trailing space or newlines are accepted.It's easier to explain with a few examples: 0 // No minuses between each + signġ 2 // First a single minus, then two minuses The second input list specifies the number of bars between each plus sign, in the vertical direction. The first input list specifies the number of minuses between each plus sign, in the horizontal direction. Horizontal lines are minuses - (ASCII-code 45).Vertical lines are bars | (ASCII-code 124).Corners and intersections are pluses: + (ASCII-code 43).E.g.Take two lists of non-negative integers, and output an ASCII-box as it's defined below. specify the number of lines to comment, followed by !!, then the boxes command you want to use.place the cursor in the first of the lines to be commented.write some lines of plain text (we’ll wrap comments around them in the next steps).Think multi-line code comments we really want to stand out, or making documentation files more interesting! Now comes the super fun part! We can use vim to add any of these boxes around some lines in a file.
$ echo "Here's some text I want to put a box around!" | boxes -d cat Use in vim To use a particular design, append -d to the command. The less isn’t strictly necessary, but it allows us to more easily navigate through the lengthy output.
#ASCII ART BOX INSTALL#
To list all available box designs in the config file (my install came with 65!), we run: $ echo "Here's some text I want to put a box around!" | boxes To use boxes on the command line, we pipe some text into it. The asciicast video below captures the main commands and a demo (you can copy the text out of the video - try it!), or scroll down for a list of the commands to try. Great! What next? Before we go using it in vim, let’s play around with it a bit on the command line. If we get something like boxes version 1.3, that means boxes is installed (it’s ok if your version number is different). We can check that boxes has installed successfully by running boxes -v. Here’s what that process looks like on OSX: What we’re going to use is a text filter program called boxes.
