Hi.
This is the second in a series of Stupid Picasso Tricks. ftriangles 1.0 displays
random Gouraud-shaded triangles on a 24-bit 640x480 Picasso II screen.
It takes one parameter, the number of triangles to display. The default is 10.
You can safely run it with a very large number, as in 'ftriangles 1000000', and
abort it when bored. Any mouse click or key should cause it to exit after the
current triangle completes.
If you feed it a negative number, such as -100, it will run in performance test
mode. In this mode, it may not be aborted. To get results which may be fairly
compared, you should leave the Picasso screen in front until it's done.
Here are some performance results from my A4000/040:
ftriangles -100
drew 100 triangles in 27 seconds, performance of 3.70 triangles/second
ftriangles -500
drew 500 triangles in 131 seconds, performance of 3.82 triangles/second
Have fun!
