We began with the"getting started" tutorial
http://processing.org/learning/gettingstarted/
We covered a little about
- coordinate system
- variables
- program flow
- functions
And finished by editing a simple "pong paddle" program:
void setup() { // size of our drawing window size(400, 400); // set the background color to gray background(128); } void draw() { // draw with a gray border stroke(128,128,128); // draw over the box we drew last time (at old mouse pos) fill(128); // gray drawbox(pmouseX,pmouseY); fill(255); //white // draw the new box at the new mouse position drawbox(mouseX,mouseY); } // draw a paddle-shaped box at the given coordinates void drawbox(int x, int y) { rect(30,y,10,40); }
