An implementation of Bresenham's line drawing algorithm.
See the Wikipedia entry for details on what that is.
In a Python virtual environment, do:
python -m pip install bresenham
To install an editable from a Git checkout:
python -m pip install -e.
To install without a virtual envitonment, add the --user option.
The bresenham(x0, y0, x1, y1) function, which returns a generator of
the coordinates of the line from (x0, y0) to (x1, y1).
For example, the coordinates of a line from, say, (-1, -4) to (3, 2), are:
>>> from bresenham import bresenham >>> list(bresenham(-1, -4, 3, 2)) [(-1, -4), (0, -3), (0, -2), (1, -1), (2, 0), (2, 1), (3, 2)]
