In this step, we will implement an example from your lecture.
If the x coordinate of the mouse pointer is on the:
left half of the display window, draw a rectangle on the left hand side.
right half of the display window, draw a rectangle on the right hand side.
Create a new Processing sketch in your workspace and call it Example_3_1.
Enter the following code into your sketchbook (avoid the temptation to copy and paste it…you learn more by writing the code out):
void setup() {
size(100, 100);
noStroke();
fill(0);
}
void draw() {
background(204);
if (mouseX < 50)
{
rect(0, 0, 50, 100);
}
else
{
rect(50, 0, 50, 100);
}
}
