I run into problems with point data occasionally and it's hard to find a solution for using the data, when I can only view the problem in messy code format.
This sometimes leaves me wondering if the function I'm writing is even working correctly or not.
 
The example below is a rough tool I made to visualize and edit the Array format of points I usually work with. Over time I have transformed, gutted, and replace its code for different tests I needed it for. (The insides are not pretty.)
Yep it looks like a drawing tool, just not intended for that. I've only added certain "drawing" features I needed to make it easy to visualize the data I'm working on.
