Uxn - Day 3

2023-01-06

A much better day!

https://compudanzas.net/uxn_tutorial_day_3.html

I had a much better time with this day as I could actually understand what was happening. I think starting with this day might have been much better and then going to the first 2 days. I think the first 2 days I was lost in the trees and day 3 shows you the forest.

I also have some stuff I want to do to make it easier to grok uxn. The stack machine idea is definitely intuitive and I like it but visually seeing things would be nice.

The final code for day 3:

( day 3 )

( devices )
|00 @System [ &vector $2 &pad $6 &r $2 &g $2 &b $2 ]
|20 @Screen [ &vector $2 &width $2 &height $2 &pad $2 &x $2 &y $2 &addr $2 &pixel $1 &sprite $1 ]
|80 @Controller [ &vector $2 &button $1 &key $1 ]

( macros )
%DRAW-SQUARE {
    .Screen/x DEO2
    .Screen/y DEO2

    ;square .Screen/addr DEO2

    #01 .Screen/sprite DEO
}

( main )

This program lets you control a square over the screen. Very fun.
