Or this (after Patrick Scheibe): Module[{num = 10, m = RotationMatrix[3/4 Pi], yMax}, yMax = Last[m.{num, 1}]; Graphics[{EdgeForm@Directive[Thin, Black], Table[{x, y} = m.{i, j}; {ColorData["TemperatureMap"][y/yMax], Disk[{x, y}, 0.4]}, {i, 0, num}, {j, 0, i}]}]] Bobby On Tue, 26 Apr 2011 03:43:16 -0500, Sol Lederman <sol.lederman at gmail.com> wrote: > Hi, > > I'm teaching myself Mathematica. > > I've plotted this: > > Graphics[{ > Blue, > Disk[{5, 10}, .25], > Disk[{4, 9}, .25], > Disk[{6, 9}, .25], > Disk[{3, 8}, .25], > Disk[{5, 8}, .25], > Disk[{7, 8}, .25], > Disk[{2, 7}, .25], > Disk[{4, 7}, .25], > Disk[{6, 7}, .25], > Disk[{8, 7}, .25], > Disk[{1, 6}, .25], > Disk[{3, 6}, .25], > Disk[{5, 6}, .25], > Disk[{7, 6}, .25], > Disk[{9, 6}, .25] > }] > > > Is there an elegant way to write this without a bunch of Disk statements? > I'm imagining that this would be a double nested loop. > > > Thanks. > > > Sol -- DrMajorBob at yahoo.com
