Possibly naive question, but inquiring minds wanna know
my $x = 400;
my $y = 200;
my $n = 20;
my @dat = (1234, 123, 1, 0, 245, 5, 546, 10);
store_pdl();
store_bin();
sub store_pdl {
my $row = ones($x)->dummy * pdl(@dm);
my $img = ones($y)->dummy->dummy * $row;
my $hdr = writefraw($img, 'pdl.dat');
}
sub store_bin {
open BIN, '>:raw', 'bin.dat';
for ( 0 .. $y ) {
for ( 0 .. $x ) {
printf BIN "%s", pack 's8', @dat;
}
};
close BIN;
}

the piddle is approx. 4 times the size of the packed file. I was
expecting it to be bigger, but not 4 times bigger. Is there a way
around this?
