[racket] documentation example for slideshow/pict
I solved my lined-box problem, and maybe `2.3 Pict Combiners' ought to
be explain it, as `Quick: An Introduction to Racket with Pictures'
uses slideshow. New racket users will likely play with slideshow, and
e.g. try a table with horiz & vert lines separating the entries.
The documentation for table doesn't say what the col-aligns,
row-aligns, col-seps, and row-seps arguments actually do, but I think
a smart person who thought about it would realize that there's a grid
of horizontal & vertical line, and if e.g. each col-aligns &
row-aligns entry was cc-superimpose, then the centers of the entries
would all be on the grid intersection points. And that if you
increase col-seps and row-seps, the entries will be pushed apart. But
nothing in `2.3 Pict Combiners' indicates how you could make a lined
table. It turns out to be easy: superimpose each entry with a
(rectangle max_w max_h)
where max_w & max_h are bigger than each width & height of all each
bounding box. Then just make a table with the superimposed rectangle
entries, with each col-seps & row-seps entry 0. Like this:
#lang slideshow
;; Digit = 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | 7 | 8 | 9
;; NL = number or list = Digit | (list of Digits)
;; Sudoku = (list of list of NL)
(define (digit->char i)
(integer->char (+ 48 i)))
(define (Build-list n f) (build-list n (lambda (i) (f (add1 i)))))
;; print-sudoku: Sudoku -> Pict
;; to build a picture of a sudoku as a 9x9 table, with all 9 boxes boxed, with a text picture for each big number, and a 3x3 table of text pictures for each empty cell list. Each cell's entry (an NL) is centered in a square rectangle. This causes the alignment and also produces the 9 row and 9 column lines.
