That's it. We store each and every shape in this 4D array. The content of the array is deined
in the
Pentomino.cpp
ile. The following code is the extract that deines all 4 rotations of a
single shape:
char Shapes [ NUM_SHAPES ][ ROTATIONS ][ SHAPES_X ][ SHAPES_Y ] =
{
{
{
{0, 0, 0, 0, 0},
{0, 0, 0, 1, 0},
{0, 0, 3, 2, 0},
{0, 5, 4, 0, 0},
{0, 0, 0, 0, 0}
},
{
{0, 0, 0, 0, 0},
{0, 5, 0, 0, 0},
{0, 4, 3, 0, 0},
{0, 0, 2, 1, 0},
{0, 0, 0, 0, 0}
},
{
{0, 0, 0, 0, 0},
{0, 0, 4, 5, 0},
{0, 2, 3, 0, 0},
{0, 1, 0, 0, 0},
{0, 0, 0, 0, 0}
},
{
{0, 0, 0, 0, 0},
{0, 1, 2, 0, 0},
{0, 0, 3, 4, 0},
{0, 0, 0, 5, 0},
{0, 0, 0, 0, 0}
}
},
The non-zero values in the array deine which cells belong to the shape. The magnitude of the
value deines the color of the cell.
