Bresenham's Line Algorithm

This hex is an implementation of Bresenham's Line Algorithm in Hex Casting. Adapted from this code. It makes extensive use of Hexal's macro feature. All macros used are documented below the main hex, along with suggested patterns. The full .hexpattern file is also included at the end of the post.

Bonus: here's my Python implementation that I used as a reference while making this hex. I'm pretty proud of how compact I got the algorithm tbh.

Code: Select all

from __future__ import annotations
from dataclasses import dataclass
from typing import Callable, Iterator, Literal

def sign(x: float) -> Literal[1, 0, -1]:
    return 1 if x > 0 else -1 if x < 0 else 0

@dataclass
class Point:
    x: float
    y: float
    z: float

    @classmethod
    def zero(cls) -> Point:
        return Point(0, 0, 0)

    def sign(self) -> Point:
        return Point(sign(self.x), sign(self.y), sign(self.z))
    
    def hadamard(self, other: Point) -> Point:
        return Point(self.x * other.x, self.y * other.y, self.z * other.z)

    def __add__(self, other: float | int | Point) -> Point:
        match other:
            case float() | int():
                return Point(self.x + other, self.y + other, self.z + other)
            case Point():
                return Point(self.x + other.x, self.y + other.y, self.z + other.z)
    
    def __sub__(self, other: float | int | Point) -> Point:
        return self + (-other)

    def __mul__(self, other: float | int) -> Point:
        return Point(self.x * other, self.y * other, self.z * other)
    
    def __neg__(self) -> Point:
        return self * -1
    
    def __iter__(self) -> Iterator[float]:
        return iter((self.x, self.y, self.z))
    
    def __repr__(self) -> str:
        return f"({self.x}, {self.y}, {self.z})"

def bresenham(p0: Point, p1: Point, f: Callable[[Point], None]):
    diff = p1 - p0
    s = diff.sign()
    dp = diff.hadamard(s)

    dm = int(max(dp.x, dp.y, dp.z))
    e = Point(dm / 2, dm / 2, dm / 2)

    for _ in range(dm + 1):
        e -= dp

        mask = e.sign() - 1
        mask -= mask.sign()

        e -= mask * dm

        f(p0)
        p0 -= mask.hadamard(s)
