NAME

Language::Befunge::Storage::Generic::Vec - a generic N-dimensional LaheySpace

VERSION

version 5.000

SYNOPSIS

# create a 3-dimensional LaheySpace.
my $torus = Language::Befunge::Storage::Generic::Vec->new(3);
$torus->clear();
$torus->store(<<"EOF");

Note you usually don't need to use this module directly. Language::Befunge::Interpreter can optionally use it. If you are considering using it, you should really install Language::Befunge::Storage::Generic::Vec::XS too, as this module is dreadfully slow without it. If you cannot install that, you should use Language::Befunge::Storage::Generic::AoA instead, it will perform better.

DESCRIPTION

This module implements a traditional Lahey space.

CONSTRUCTOR

new( dimensions )

Creates a new Lahey Space.

PUBLIC METHODS

clear( )

Clear the torus.

expand( v )

Expand the torus to include the provided point.

get_value( vector )

Return the number stored in the torus at the specified location. If the value hasn't yet been set, it defaults to the ordinal value of a space (ie, #32).

/!\ As in Funge, code and data share the same playfield, the number returned can be either an instruction or a data (or even both... Eh, that's Funge! :o) ).

set_value( vector, value )

Write the supplied value in the torus at the specified location.

/!\ As in Funge, code and data share the same playfield, the number stored can be either an instruction or a data (or even both... Eh, that's Funge! :o) ).

EXTERNAL METHODS

Several methods are inherited from the Language::Befunge::Storage base class. These methods are:

store
store_binary
get_char
get_dims
rectangle
min
max
labels_lookup
_labels_try

Please see the documentation of that module for more information.

BUGS

None known. Please inform me if you find one.
