of time

for i in range(0,8):
GPIO. output(latchPin,GPIO.LOW)
shiftOut(dataPin,clockPin,MSBFIRST,pic[i])#first shift data of line
information to first stage 74HC959
shiftOut(dataPin,clockPin,MSBFIRST,~x)#then shift data of column

each frame is repeated a certain number of times, and the more times the number of repetitions, the longer
the single frame display, the slower the rolling.
for k in range(0,len(data)-8):#len(data) total number of O-F columns.
for j in range(0,20):# times of repeated displaying LEDMatrix in every frame,
the bigger the j, the longer the display time
x= 0x80 # Set the column information to start from the first column
for i in range(k,k+8):
