thanks, your code is much faster than mine, and now it produce the same figure as in the
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ulam_spiral
after we invert the colors
one small note is that your code will plot number 1 as a prime number, we can find this if we insert
print "number of primes = $NumOfPrimes \n"; before the mainloop; and try the program with number 10 , it will give us the number of primes is 5
as a variation i suggest for the invistigators for small spirals to replace the main plotting code:
$c->createText( $x*+$o, $y+$o, -fill => "$colr", -text => '.'); with
$c->createText( $x*30+$o, $y*30+$o, -fill => "$colr", -text => "$num"); so we can see numbers instead of dots in wich the primes will be in white color , the factor 30 above is for magnification of the plotting.

In reply to Re^4: ulam's spiral too slow by orange

to format your post; it's "PerlMonks-approved HTML":



  • Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
  • Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
    <code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
  • Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
