I did Scratch before. Now I'll wok on Panther.

All work.

Ok! Done with Panther!

big_smile The Library looks much cooler now.

Great!

... I was going to say this eariler but don't you think the spaces between the blocks should be un-linked so there isn't a line between each link square?

Yes, I think that but I'm too lazy to log out and change it. XD

sparks · 2011-05-02 13:56:44

still, looks great!

Right, I (and someone else) have edited all the category links at the bottom of the posts smile

I was but I had to leave in the middle. hmm

Hey Guys, I was having a bit of fun and came up with this:

The Panther project directly accesses the statistics page of the block library, filters out the number of blocks in each category and displays them in a bar chart as shown above.

Download the project here!

I thought about doing this when eariler, I noticed that there were far more operator blocks than any other in most parts of the library, probably because they are easy to make and useful and I then wanted to see how many of each block type had been shared over the three applications the library caters for!

The project does not pull up sharer information which is a shame, maybe someone would like to edit the project to add it? The thing I like about this project is it should always work without us having to update a second set of figures when we add a new block!

Though it wasn't needed, the project happens to be 0 sprite 1 script which was fun to do and in this case did not detract from operation speed smile

This may have applications for the library with a little tweaking as block library updates could occasionally have something similar to this shown so that viewers can get an idea of how the library looks statistically. It's a little easier to picture the meaning of this bar chart than the pure numbers given in the stats page.

AWESOME! I have an idea, w can take off the script and upload it online to scratch. Then we can whenever a library update happens re make it, save a picture of the stage, and put it on scratch, and update the project! Like the idea? It would be kinda useless besides to show people who didn't download the project how it looks, actually, we could every time save a picture and every update add the project with a new costume of the blocks, then we can make it so the left arrow will change the costume by - 1 and right arrow change to the next costume, you could see it moving! It would be kinda cool.

How is that 0s1s!?
It's awesome!

It's 0s 1s because the stage holds two costumes (white and display). It then uses the text and rectangle stamp blocks to stamp the information onto the screen. Taking the HTML from the page with the stats page it then filters out the stats post, then divides that into rough chunks that contain the information for Scratch, Panther and BYOB to seperate variables . Then it takes it to the next stage by filtering our the bare surrounding HTML and working out the number inside the [ ]'s on each category! As long as no-one changes the location of the little block images at the top of each statistics part and the layout is drastically changed it should filter it all out nicely! It relies on the (index of [ ] starting at ( ) in [ ]) block a lot, very useful block, as well as three panther library blocks - stamp text, stamp rectangle and set stepping speed (the last one lets the project parser and display the information faster.
