Represents a two-dimensional array of data. The number of rows and columns is fixed.
Create an array of the specified size.
a = Array2D.new(3,4);
a[2,2] = 1;
a.postln
Build an Array2D from the supplied array.
xxxxxxxxxx
a = Array2D.fromArray(3,4, [9,8,7,6,5,4,3,2,1,2,3,4]);
a[2,2] = 1;
a.postln
Get a value from the array.
xxxxxxxxxx
a.at(2,3);
a[2,3];
Put a value into the array.
xxxxxxxxxx
a.put(2,3, 72);
a[2,3] = 72;
Iterate over the columns. Each column will be passed to func in turn.
xxxxxxxxxx
a.colsDo(_.postln);
Iterate over the rows. Each row will be passed to func in turn.
xxxxxxxxxx
a.rowsDo(_.postln);
Retrieve a single column.
xxxxxxxxxx
a.colAt(2);
Retrieve a single row.
xxxxxxxxxx
a.rowAt(2);
// "a" is an array-of-arrays
a = { { 100.0.rand }.dup(100) }.dup(100);
// "b" is an equivalent Array2D, made using the "fromArray" class method
b = Array2D.fromArray(100,100, a.flat);
// Accessing
a[15][22]
b[15, 22]
// Speed comparison 1: random access
bench { 100.do(a[100.rand][100.rand]) }
bench { 100.do(b[100.rand, 100.rand]) }
// Speed comparison 2: iteration
bench { 100.do(a.do { |row| row.do { |item| item * 2 } }) }
bench { 100.do(b.do { |item| item * 2 }) }
