Does anyone know how to render text using points efficiently? I don’t want to make a 16-segment display (for letters), so I’m just using points.
My idea was to use a variable, and it can be 1-26. Then I have 26 different points for each letter A-Z. But thats really tedious and wastes 26 lines of expression space.
People who might be interested: @Guzman_Tierno @Daniel_Grubbs
cant you use a list?
I would essentially Have the same problem… instead of directly referencing the variable, I just reference the list with the index [1..26]. That wouldn’t really change anything.
The problem is Desmos has no character set.
daniel or guzman should know
I just tagged them in the post
alright, question though, what are you making, a font?
No. I want to add a feature to my Desmos Assembly language.
maybe this is useful:

YES I HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR YOU LIKE A BILLION YEAR thanks 
(just looked, I don’t think you can work around NOT defining each letter as a seperate variable)
no, I think every letter needs to be a variable … but how is this a problem?
here’s a simplified version:

Eh… it’s just last time I did something complex (my art submission), I used 580 lines when I think now I could’ve just used 400. It’s like PSTD but for desmos.
for some reason, the letter v just doesnt work
Instead of your long conditional, you could make an indexed list of functions.
yes, that’s way better … but, btw, the original graph is not mine …
here’s the version using a list of functions:
