Dear John,

> How to make this a polygon?

An example:

\starttext
\startluacode
local metafun = context.metafun
metafun.start()
io.input("DATA")
local i, j
local x, y, s, t1, t2
i = 1
x={}
y={}
s="draw "
while true do
  x[i], y[i] = io.read("*n", "*n")
  if not x[i] then break end
  metafun("filldraw fullcircle scaled 2mm shifted(%dcm,%dcm);",x[i],y[i])
  i = i + 1
end
i = i - 1
for j = 1, i do
  t1 = tostring(x[j])
  t2 = tostring(y[j])
  s = s.."("..t1.."cm,"..t2.."cm)--"
end
t1 = tostring(x[1])
t2 = tostring(y[1])
s = s.."("..t1.."cm,"..t2.."cm)"
s = s.." withpen pencircle scaled 1bp;"
metafun(s)
metafun.stop()
\stopluacode
\stoptext

Best,
Akira

Here is a bit more compact version. A path can normally nicely be concat 
using "--" or ".." and we have a metafun helper drawpoints.

\starttext
\startluacode
context.metafun.start()
local split = utilities.parsers.csvsplitter { separator = " " }
local data = split(io.loaddata("data.txt"))
for i=1,#data do
     data[i] = string.formatters["(%s,%s)"](unpack(data[i]))
end
context.metafun("path p ; p := (%s -- cycle) scaled cm 
;",table.concat(data,"--"))
context.metafun("draw       p withpen pencircle scaled 0.25mm ;")
context.metafun("drawpoints p withpen pencircle scaled 2.00mm ;")
context.metafun.stop()
\stopluacode
\stoptext

Thank you Hans. A few tools new to me in there!

I am wondering (and will try to find) if multiple paths could be contained in the external file— a marker and test structure?

Thanks again,

John

Many thanks to you Akira.

Reading the file into lua tables is good sense, and thank you for the string manipulations to pass to metafun().

From your teaching I changed this assignment:

> t1 = tostring(x[1])
> t2 = tostring(y[1])
> s = s.."("..t1.."cm,"..t2.."cm)"
> s = s.." withpen pencircle scaled 1bp;"

to: s = s.."cycle withpen pencircle scaled 1bp;”

to close the polygon.

With respect,

John

plot data from file: cld

[John Kitzmiller]

I seek how to use context-lua to draw a path from ‘points’ in an external file. 

Below is one way to plot points from an external file, call the file DATA with contents:

1 3
-2 2
-3 -1
3 -2

\starttext
\startluacode
local metafun = context.metafun
metafun.start()

io.input(“DATA")
while true do
  local x, y = io.read("*n", "*n")
  if not x then break end
  metafun("filldraw fullcircle scaled 2mm shifted(%dcm,%dcm);",x,y)
end

metafun.stop()
\stopluacode
\stoptext


How to make this a polygon?

I know other ways to read and manipulate DATA with Lua—it is the drawing part where I most look for help.

Thanks,
John
