- Another old, dead source code brought back to life by
- Kenneth A. Long, at itty bitty bytes(tm)!
-
- Originally a MacPascal source, from Northwestern University,
- from March 22, 1985! I translated it to Think C and perked it
- up a little. (Pascal source is included, plus original prog.)
-
- Watch out - there may be bugs or unimplemented traps!
-
- It originally put up a text window, asked for variations, then it
- would show the drawing window and two sets of 3 "sine" graphs of
- something some psychology professor thought had something to do
- with behavior/action, with different line widths differentiating
- (though not specified as to which was which).
-
- But my C version only does the drawing. If you want to change the
- values you have to do it in the DynamicSimulation () routine. But
- that's no fun.
-
- I was interested in the drawing - not the console crap, so I
- got rid of all of it. It should be replaced by a dialog or some
- on-screen controls, ala "OvalsDooDadd" or Earthplot. See? That
- would be more fun.
-
- I added some colorization and a vertical line drawing routine. I
- also added a grow box and handler, but the window doesn't update.
-
- The strings drawn are based off window height/width, but the graphs
- are not, so grow/shrink window is screwy.
-
- Other than that it's pretty much the same - as far as drawing - as
- the original.
-
- I don't know what sort of a tangent the shrinks were on that had
- something to do with the supposed purpose of these graphs, but it
- has some use as a value graphing thing - if you know what to
- change and where. A biorythm charter?
-
- Enjoy!
