This example shows how to batch-convert every slide in a PowerPoint presentation into JPEG images. The VBA macro iterates through all slides in the active presentation, exporting each one with a fixed output size of 2667 by 1500 pixels. The code uses the `Slide.Export` method, which is part of the PowerPoint object model, and references the `ActivePresentation` object. The filenames include a zero-padded slide index to preserve order. The macro relies on the built-in VBA `For Each` loop and the `Format` function to generate sequential names, with the output directory hardcoded as "Z:\". This approach automates slide-to-image conversion without manual screen captures.

Excel Macro for exporting all sheets as csv

This example presents a VBA macro that exports every worksheet in an Excel workbook to a separate CSV file. It iterates through each sheet using a `For Each` loop over `Application.ActiveWorkbook.Worksheets`. For each sheet, it copies the sheet to a new workbook and saves it with the sheet’s name using the `SaveAs` method with `FileFormat:=xlCSV`. The macro then closes the temporary workbook, leaving the original file untouched.

conversion loops in bash

This example shows two bash loops that batch-convert files between formats. The first loop processes all GIF files in a folder, using ImageMagick's `convert` to split each animation into numbered frames and then append them vertically into a single image. The second loop transforms every HTML file into a PDF via `wkhtmltopdf`. Both loops rely on shell parameter substitution and `sed` to derive output filenames, echoing each file as it is processed.

Generating Mandelbrot set in Power Query

This example renders the Mandelbrot set entirely within Power Query by generating a 1080-point sequence with `List.Generate`, mapping each point to the complex plane, and iterating the classic Mandelbrot formula to compute escape values. It visualizes the resulting 2D grid of iteration counts as a static bitmap, relying on Power Query’s built-in table and chart capabilities rather than external libraries. The code exposes a compact, functional approach to fractal generation, directly showing how iteration-based math translates into a visual image without specialized graphics APIs.

Vizhub.com AI Presentation Slide

This interactive presentation showcases VizHub, a web platform for creating and sharing D3.js data visualizations. The code renders a nine-slide deck covering platform features, audience, technology stack, business model, and community aspects. Built with vanilla JavaScript, the presentation manages slide content through module scripts, with navigation buttons and arrow-key or spacebar controls for moving between slides. Each slide displays structured content from an array, with a progress indicator showing the current position within the deck.

Screen Recording to GIF

This example shows how to convert a screen recording into an animated GIF using command-line tools. It first generates a color palette from the video with FFmpeg’s `palettegen` filter, then applies that palette with `paletteuse` to produce a high-quality GIF. The workflow also supports optional frame dropping via `fps` and cropping through FFmpeg’s `crop` filter. The code relies solely on FFmpeg and Gifsicle, with QuickTime Player used for the initial recording.

Screen Recording to GIF

This example demonstrates a command-line workflow for converting a QuickTime screen recording into an optimized GIF. It first uses ffmpeg to extract frames at 24 fps, then ImageMagick’s `convert` to build a palette from the first frame, remap all frames with `-remap` for color reduction, and finally gifsicle with `--optimize=3` to compress the output. A resize option via gifsicle shows how to scale the final image, while the code notes alternative tools like LICEcap and the trade-offs of uploading MOV files to Twitter.

Creating Thumbnails with GraphicsMagick

This example demonstrates a batch image processing workflow using GraphicsMagick’s `gm convert` command. It shows how to automatically generate uniform thumbnails from a folder of PNG images, first cropping each source to a 1920x1000 region offset by (312, 510) pixels, then resizing the crop to 230x120 pixels. The shell script iterates over all PNG files in the `source` directory, processes each one, and saves the results to a `target` folder. The approach relies on Bash array expansion and the `gm` command-line tool’s `-crop` and `-resize` operators.

Bash script to process frames and convert then to a video format with ffmpeg

This example demonstrates how to assemble a sequence of numbered JPEG frames into a single video file. It relies on the Bash script to orchestrate the conversion, calling ffmpeg with a specified framerate of 30 frames per second. The command uses the libx264 codec with high profile settings, a constant rate factor of 18, and the yuv420p pixel format to ensure broad compatibility. The input pattern `path_to_file_%04d.jpeg` indicates that frames are named with four-digit zero-padded numbers, which ffmpeg then reads sequentially to produce the final `output.mp4`.
