Who can tell me how to make a line

[Rudiger]

i need someone to tell me how to make a line. I don't want someone saying jsut put
put "******************************************************"
i need a code

[Dan]

put "__________________________"

no i am just kidding

the line comand is somthing like this:

code:

drawline(0,0,100,100, red)

where it is drawline(x1, y1, x2, y2, color)

also Draw.Line wroks the same way

[Rudiger]

thanx man you just gave me a a+ or a high mark

[PaddyLong]

or to be really cool put repeat("_", 10)

[Dan]

why not just do

loop
put "_"..
end loop

never ending lines

[Blade]

could also use locate(row,col) to move yer line around

[Tony]

well while we're on the topic of useless sujestions for making lines

code:

loop Draw.Line(Rand.Int(0,maxx),Rand.Int(0,maxy),Rand.Int(0,maxx),Rand.Int(0,maxy),Rand.Int(0,255)) end loop

[Mazer]

the best way to draw a line:

code:

for i : 1 .. 100     drawdot (i, i, 7) end for

[Tony]

who said that the line must be straight?

code:

for i:1..maxx Draw.Dot(i,round(cos(i))+round(maxy/2),black) end for

[naoki]

i think there's like undocumented functions in drawline like drawthickline or drawdashedline. and in those you specify the thickness of the line.

[Rudiger]

This line has to be straight
a haziontal line
like this ___________________
i just want a line to divide up 2 section in the porgram

[Tony]

well PaddyLong already answered your question then...

code:

put repeat("_", 10)

[who cares?]

GOD YOU PEOPLE HAVE WAY TOO MUCH TIME ON YOUR HANDS!!!

[hackman]

You forgot one
Vertical line:

code:

for k:1..20 put "|" end for

[Blade]

no... if you want to divide the screen in half... do this

code:

drawline(0,maxy div 2,maxx,maxy div 2,black)

okay, all it does is draw a line... the first two numbers being the x,y coordinates of the one end of the line, then the next two numbers are the x,y coordinates of the second part of the line, then the last one can be a colour name or a colour number. so its really
drawline(x1,y1,x2,y2,black)

ex: drawline(0,50,100,50,black)

0,50 - xy coordinate of the one end of the line
100,50 - xy coordinate of the other end
black - colour

since both y's are 50 it will be a straight horizontal line
