Write Code to translate the tide heights from the JSON to a new output string ready for printing

[cheapjack]

@gemmamaylatham. Can we work on how we let the JSON change the OUTPUT.TXT strings so we end up with different patterns for each birth date

[GemmaMayLatham]

Had uploded file to do this but it want in a folder. Have just re-added full folder - Tide_Pattern that takes JSON And interacts with pattern. File includes couple of options for original pattern too. Think folakart2 looks best

[cheapjack]

@GemmaMayLatham can’t see how the data float object from the JSON in

float data = TideHeight.getFloat("height");//get value of height from   it
    println(data);

Actually does anything to the loaded image in input

The code just reads it, scales it, turns to black and white with PImage(THRESHOLD); and then into a string for printing but doesn’t do anything else unless Im missing something?

Or is that the bit we said we’d work on? Think it might be ;)

@GemmaMayLatham definately doesn't do anything with TideHeight it's ok we can look at it we've got 6 hours 👍

[GemmaMayLatham]

Bit that's annoying because it did do something!!! You shouldn't need to do anything other that combine to dial inputs!!

Can you send me pictures please

[GemmaMayLatham]

Have you compared the output image against the folkart2.jpg?

[GemmaMayLatham]

Have you plugged it into the printer?
