Perl to Ruby conversion (multidimensional arrays)
- by Alex
I'm just trying to get my head around a multidimensional array creation from a perl script i'm currently converting to Ruby, I have 0 experience in Perl, as in i opened my first Perl script this morning.
Here is the original loop:
my $tl = {};
for my $zoom ($zoommin..$zoommax) {
my $txmin = lon2tilex($lonmin, $zoom);
my $txmax = lon2tilex($lonmax, $zoom);
# Note that y=0 is near lat=+85.0511 and y=max is near
# lat=-85.0511, so lat2tiley is monotonically decreasing.
my $tymin = lat2tiley($latmax, $zoom);
my $tymax = lat2tiley($latmin, $zoom);
my $ntx = $txmax - $txmin + 1;
my $nty = $tymax - $tymin + 1;
printf "Schedule %d (%d x %d) tiles for zoom level %d for download ...\n",
$ntx*$nty, $ntx, $nty, $zoom
unless $opt{quiet};
$tl->{$zoom} = [];
for my $tx ($txmin..$txmax) {
for my $ty ($tymin..$tymax) {
push @{$tl->{$zoom}},
{ xyz => [ $tx, $ty, $zoom ] };
}
}
}
and what i have so far in Ruby:
tl = []
for zoom in zoommin..zoommax
txmin = cm.tiles.xtile(lonmin,zoom)
txmax = cm.tiles.xtile(lonmax,zoom)
tymin = cm.tiles.ytile(latmax,zoom)
tymax = cm.tiles.ytile(latmin,zoom)
ntx = txmax - txmin + 1
nty = tymax - tymin + 1
tl[zoom] = []
for tx in txmin..txmax
for ty in tymin..tymax
tl[zoom] << xyz = [tx,ty,zoom]
puts tl
end
end
end
The part i'm unsure of is nested right at the root of the loops, push @{$tl->{$zoom}},{ xyz => [ $tx, $ty, $zoom ] };
I'm sure this will be very simple for a seasoned Perl programmer, thanks! `
