3D Christmas Bauble animated by 'BBC BASIC for SDL 2.0'. The music, also played by BBC BASIC, is 'Prepare Thyself, Zion' from J.S.Bach's Christmas Oratorio; it was transcribed for Z80 Music by Gerald Pye on 27th September 1981. bbcbasic.co.uk/bbcsdl/ #bbcbasic

My July newsletter has hit/bounced pointlessly into the internet, and it’s a geeky one.

Anyone here remember BBC BASIC? 🤓

Rendered and animated by a BBC BASIC program, this illustrates how a regular heptagon can be dissected into eight pieces, which can then be re-arranged into a larger heptagon - but with a heptagonal hole in the middle! www.bbcbasic.co.uk/bbcsdl/ #bbcbasic

Flashback to May 2020 at the height of the Covid lockdowns in the UK. The source code had been recently open sourced and sitting around on my PC for a year or so. Bored out of my mind, I decided to have a crack at getting it running on my bare bones computer #Z80 #homebrew #bbcbasic...
BBC Basic for Z80 on the BSX - L Break Into Program, 0:1
One of the advantages of lockdown is that spare time is often in plentiful supply. I noted a few months ago that BBC Basic for Z80 by R.T.Russell is now open source, and available under a zlib license...

If you look at the function draw_line in here (lines 265 to 398) it assumes that you have a function called Plot_Point which preserves BC, DE and HL, and takes the parameters L = X, H = Y. My implementation starts at line 198. That should do for you.

@bit101 a version I made for the bbc micro a few years back. I do like that coding up optical illusions like this means you know for certain it's not what it appears to be... but you can't unsee it https://mastodon.me.uk/@bbcmicrobot/109763774911592856
