How can you alter the following code to replicate the letters ‘G’ and ‘X’ into your command prompt using ROR? I was able to create the letter H to display on my cmd.
Draw top Region 1
for y in 1..8
for x in 1..6
print "*"
end
for x in 1..8
print " "
end
for x in 1..6
print "p"
end
print "\n"
end
``
Draw center bar Region 2 goes all the way across the bar
Use a different character or different regions.
for y in 1…3
for x in 1…20
print “*”
end
print “\n”
end
``
Draw bottom bar Region 3 Look like the top bar
for y in 1…8
for x in 1…6
print “*”
end
for x in 1..8
print " "
end
for x in 1..6
print "*"
end
print "\n"
end
if you go that route, you may have problems editing the letters. imc, i actually created a drawing / image of all the letters in a text file, then compress / decompress the file when needed. i arranged the letters in a column, one big letter-width-wise column ie, because it was easier for me to edit the letters and i can visibly see if they align or go out of bounds/edges.
there are vector-based-like version of this; see figlet and artii gems eg.
There is a program, banner(1), on a lot of unix systems that does this. So either you might not want to do it in Ruby (because this does it already), e.g.,
