Need help with computronics camera

I have computronics installed but the sample code doesnt work

local camera = peripheral.wrap("right")
local array = " .,-=+xX#"
local monitor = peripheral.wrap("monitor_0")
local yp = 1
monitor.clear()
monitor.setTextScale(0.5)
monitor.setCursorPos(1,1)
for j = -0.35,0.25,0.025 do
  for i = -1,1,0.036 do
    local d = camera.distance(i, 0-j)
    local a = 1
    if d > 0 then a = 2 + (8 - math.min(8, (d/1.2))) end
    monitor.write(string.sub(array, a, a))
  end
  yp=yp+1
  monitor.setCursorPos(1,yp)
end

How can i get this to work.

How doesn't it work?


What do you expect it to do, what does it do instead? Does it give an error message? If so, post the complete error.

Its a problem on line 5

What do you mean by doesn't work? you get errors thrown at you or everything just stays black?

It says Trere is a problem on line 5

oh my god, be more specific. tell the exact error message and read the pinned topics in ask a pro

Your monitor is not reachable as far as I can tell without having the error message itself. peripheral.wrap("monitor_0") fails to wrap and therefor returns nil I guess.
We need to know the setup: Is the monitor actually connected to the network and by the name "monitor_0" ?

In that case, your monitor is probably attached as something other than "monitor_0". Change it to the appropriate side or name.
