Usage

1⃣ Displaying 1D Arrays

require 'visual_array'

VisualArray.display([1, 2, 3, 4])

Output:

+---+---+---+---+
| 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 |
+---+---+---+---+

---

2⃣ Displaying 2D Arrays

VisualArray.display([
  [1, 2],
  [3, 4]
])

Output:

+-----+-----+
|  1  |  2  |
|  3  |  4  |
+-----+-----+

---

3⃣ Displaying Multi-Dimensional Arrays

VisualArray.display([[[1, 2], [3, 4]], [[5, 6], [7, 8]]])

Output:

Dimension 1, Index 0:
+-----+-----+
|  1  |  2  |
|  3  |  4  |
+-----+-----+

Dimension 1, Index 1:
+-----+-----+
|  5  |  6  |
|  7  |  8  |
+-----+-----+

Mathematical Operations

4⃣ Matrix Addition

matrix_a = [[1, 2], [3, 4]]
matrix_b = [[5, 6], [7, 8]]

VisualArray.add_and_display(matrix_a, matrix_b, color: 'green')

Output:

Matrix Addition Result:
1 + 5 = 6   2 + 6 = 8
3 + 7 = 10  4 + 8 = 12

---

5⃣ Matrix Subtraction

matrix_a = [[9, 8], [7, 6]]
matrix_b = [[5, 4], [3, 2]]

VisualArray.subtract_and_display(matrix_a, matrix_b, color: 'yellow')

Output:

Matrix Subtraction Result:
9 - 5 = 4   8 - 4 = 4
7 - 3 = 4   6 - 2 = 4

---

6⃣ Matrix Multiplication

matrix_a = [[1, 2], [3, 4]]
matrix_b = [[5, 6], [7, 8]]

VisualArray.multiply_and_display(matrix_a, matrix_b, color: 'red')

Output:

Matrix Multiplication Result:
(1 * 5 + 2 * 7) = 19   (1 * 6 + 2 * 8) = 22
(3 * 5 + 4 * 7) = 43   (3 * 6 + 4 * 8) = 50

---

7⃣ Matrix Division

matrix_a = [[10, 20], [30, 40]]
matrix_b = [[2, 4], [5, 10]]

VisualArray.divide_and_display(matrix_a, matrix_b, color: 'cyan')

Output:

Matrix Division Result:
10 / 2 = 5   20 / 4 = 5
30 / 5 = 6   40 / 10 = 4

---

Customizing Color

You can pass an optional color parameter:

VisualArray.display(
  [[[1, 2], [3, 4]], [[5, 6], [7, 8]]],
  color: 'blue'
)
