Calculator graphics drawing benchmark

Code:

    for x in range(0,380,s):
      i=s*randint(0,1)
      for x in range(i,188,2*s):
        line(x,y,x,y+s,color)

the inner loop should be 'for y in'.

Thanks Werner for identifying the typo. I've corrected it in the listing.

[...]
drawing in GrMod=3 (400x240), S=8 runs in 7 seconds. (on USB power)
the number of pixels drawn is 15000, so performance index 2143

What is the DM42 running time for S=4? I know the lines are probably tiny on the screen, but S=4 was used by all other calculator runs. S should be fixed to 4 for accurate ranking comparisons. For larger S fewer pixels are drawn (S=8 boosts the performance about 4 times, you see...).
