Re^3: How can I tranlate imread and imshow matlab function into perl

[stevieb]

I feel I'm one of the more lenient and accepting Monks... I often respond with code to even homework questions. In this case, I have no clue what the OP is trying to do. I responded with a generic, typically accepted response to a post that contains no information. Not everyone knows that the post translates into image requirements.

Basically, Hi, Have you tried anything? Can show what code you have inside code tags? It would help me understand your question then maybe I can help. This is not a code writing service.

The mentioning of code-writing-service code could be seen as harsh, OP didn't demand a solution, only asked about a direction/suggestion/beginning

Saying first/second.. kind of has an accusatory tone, kind of similar to: Well, if you want MY help you have to do things MY way ... nawmean?

If you compare your response to the chiding dogpile in File Parsing, its very very very very mellow response

Like they say in that thread, there is no urgency on perlmonks, but they (in that thread) should keep it more casual, helping isn't mandatory, nor is parenting/childing :) don't be mad at internets never ends

Now some will miss the point of this posting and see it as trolling/spam, as a challenge to see how pedantic they can get defending/attacking irrelevant ...

To reiterate, communications could always be a little smoother, we're all people, it doesn't take much to be seen as trying to smooth things over, you and OP didn't do anything wrong, simply consider this form of your response as a tiny bit smoother

Hi,
Im not sure what you're asking
it would help me understand your question, if you could please post whatever code you have inside code tags
Thanks

I might have asked the OP What do these matlab imshow/imread/ginput functions do ? , a bit smart alecky but I think smooth :D

Speaking of which, since I had the inclination to find out
Display image - MATLAB imshow
Read image from graphics file - MATLAB imread
Graphical input from mouse or cursor - MATLAB ginput

I too would suggest see Tk tips/tutorials/Tk::Canvas/Tk::Photo

Cheers

Why didn't you? I've *never* acted as anonymonk here on PerlMonks fyi in all my years.

I don't think I suggested you were anonymonk, or that posting as anonymonk is in any way a bad thing, or that you're bad or ...

By the time I read OPs question lanX had already responded

I owe you an answer but most was said already.

> to a post that contains no information.

Well he gave informations, he explained in plain language what kind of functions he is looking for.

I know little of MatLab and don't expect others to look off-topic things up. (like some BioInfs here expect for their FASTA stuff)

But from the description (reading/displaying images) simply hinting towards Tk and Canvas seemed appropriate.

Like this he gets a chance to ask a better question.

In dubio pro reo.

I didn't want to offend you, just clarify towards a first time poster that

> We don't do free work here upon request. You need to show at least some effort

is not the normal tone to be expected here.

My personal rule of happiness here is to try to avoid spending more effort into a reply than the OP did...
