Panels and Frames
Robot worlds in JKarel were depicted in graphics windows. Graphics windows are created as instances of the
class JFrame. A frame is a window with a border and a title bar. Content is made visible on frames using panels.
Whatever you want the user to see is placed on a panel and that panel is placed on a frame.
The class hierarchies from Sun’s Java API are shown below. Fortunately, because of object-oriented
programming, you don't have to know the details of each class! Each of your driver programs will create a frame.
In your graphics programs, each frame object will instantiate a panel object. The panel class that you make will
inherit lots of functionality from the hierarchy. As you know, inheritance uses the keyword “extends”:
public class Panel00 extends JPanel Panel00
Notice that Panel00 isa JPanel isa JComponent isa Container isa Component isa Object.
Note that a frame is able to hold panels because each frame is also a container. Eventually we will use a panel’s
container ability to hold sub-panels.
new Panel00(); JFrame frame = new JFrame("Lab00");

frame.setContentPane(new Panel00);
(0,0) (0,0)
(0,200)
(0,225)
The coordinate system treats the upper-left corner of the panel as (0, 0). As you move horizontally to the right the
x-values increase—this should be exactly as you are accustomed. As you move vertically down the y-values
increase—this should be exactly backwards from what you are accustomed.
The reason the origin is placed at the upper-left corner rather than the lower-left corner is so that the origin
remains fixed even when the user resizes the frame. Users typically manipulate the bottom-right corner in order
to resize a frame.

13 } Line 8-14: Sends messages to the g object.
14 } These messages are graphics commands.
What does a graphics object know?
Graphics programs have two (or more) files. Make sure you save both files in the same folder, Unit2\Lab00. You
may have to ask your teacher how to get the students' shells for Unit2.
Specification
Create both Unit2\Lab00\Driver00.java and Unit2\Lab00\Panel00.java. Enter the source code shown above, then
compile and run the program. Note that the panel is just a resource. Do not run the panel. Run the driver.
Experiment by changing the values shown.

Subway Graffiti
Objective
To apply your understanding of font, color, and drawString() commands.
Background
In Lab00, you created a new Color object (it was gold) with the constructor new Color(150, 150, 0).
Indeed, you can create any color by specifying the red-green-blue values (integers between 0 and 255). To make
it a bit easier, the Color class also predefines thirteen colors: black, blue, cyan, darkGray, gray, green, lightGray,
magenta, orange, pink, red, white, and yellow. To set the color to red: g.setColor(Color.red);
If you want a darker shade of red: g.setColor(Color.red.darker());
If you want a brighter shade of red: g.setColor(Color.red.brighter());
After you set a color, everything is drawn or written in that color until you change it.
There are three different styles of font in the Font class: plain, bold, and italic. To set a plain font:
g.setFont(new Font("Serif", Font.PLAIN, 8));
To create a font object that is SansSerif, bold, and large:

Font f2 = new Font("SansSerif", Font.BOLD, 20);
g.setFont(f2);
To create an italicized font or a bold and italicized font:

Font f3 = new Font("Monospaced", Font.ITALIC, 12);
Font f4 = new Font("Arial", Font.BOLD | Font.ITALIC, 12);
drawString() takes three arguments, a string and an (x, y) pair of coordinates, which specify the position of
the baseline, as shown below. For any font, the height of the big rectangle is called the height, the height of the
middle rectangle is called the ascent, the height of the lower rectangle is called the descent, and the height of the
upper rectangle is called the leading.
(x, y)
yẼS baseline
Assignment
Create Unit2\Lab00\Driver00.java. Modify the file as needed.
Create Unit2\Lab00\Panel00modify.java. You may save

Panel00.java as Panel00modify.java and modify the file.

Drawing Shapes
Many of the drawing methods take four arguments, (x +100, 20)
(x, y, width, length). The (x, y) establishes the (x, y)
absolute upper-left corner of the shape, and (width,
length) are relative from that. The diagram shows
example fillOval(20,20,100,50)
(x, y+50)
The following shapes take four arguments. Note the filled form of the
commands to produce filled rectangles and ovals. Make sure you know
how the numbers work!
Rectangle g.drawRect(50, 50, 400, 75);
Square g.fillRect(500, 50, 200, 200);
Ellipse g.drawOval(200, 200, 20, 80);
Circle g.fillOval(500, 300, 100, 100);
Point g.drawRect(400, 600, 0, 0);
In these shapes, the pairs of arguments refer to (x, y) coordinates that are
endpoints of the line segments. All four coordinates are absolute.
Line g.drawLine(20, 50, 120, 150);
Vertical Line g.drawLine(150, 50, 150, 200);
Horizontal g.drawLine(250, 50, 350, 50);

Line
Polygon int xPoints[] = {50, 150, 250};
int yPoints[] = {250, 300, 250};
g.drawPolygon(xPoints, yPoints, 3);
Polyline int xxPoints[] = {50, 150, 250};
int yyPoints[] = {300, 350, 300};
g.drawPolyline(xxPoints, yyPoints,3);
Note that the third argument to polygon and polyline is the number of points that make up the polygon or
polyline. This value will be equal to the length of each array xPoints and yPoints. The difference in these
two commands is that a polygon automatically connects the last point back to the first; a polyline does not. Be
careful! The order of the points for a polygon makes a difference. For instance:
P0 P1 P0 P1
P3 P3 P2
P2

Loops in graphics
To draw a series of lines, from (0, 25) to (0, 200), (10, 25) to (10, 200), (20, 25) to (20, 200), …, (400, 25) to
(400, 200), use the code shown below. Note that the y-values of the endpoints are always 25 and 200. The x-
values of the endpoints are always the same number (for each line), and this number increases by 10 with each
iteration of the loop.
for(int x = 0; x <= 400; x += 10)

g.drawLine(x, 25, x, 200);
This loop produces x values of 0, 10, 20, 30, …, 400. These two lines of code
draw the forty-one lines you see on the panel. It is as if we had written out forty-
one different drawLine commands, but it only took us two lines of code. Oh, the
power of a for-loop.

Our Fearless Leader
Objective
drawImage() and fillOval().
Background
Java uses an ImageIcon object to store a jpg, jpeg, gif, or png file:
ImageIcon thomas = new ImageIcon("tj.jpg");
For this to work there must be an image file named "tj.jpg" in your Unit2\Lab02 folder. This image can be
displayed with its upper-left corner at (50, 50) by using one of the commands:
g.drawImage(thomas.getImage(), 50, 50, null); //original size

g.drawImage(thomas.getImage(), 50, 50, 25, 75, null); //scaled image
The arguments 25 and 75 scale the image. The argument null is a place-holder for a certain object which
drawImage() requires, but we don't care to supply. In this case, "null" means about the same as “empty.”
Note how different types of objects work together in order to make the image appear on the screen:
ImageIcon Image Graphics JPanel JFrame
object  thomas  g.drawImage()  g paints  the panel

thomas is knows its gets thomas’s the panel appears on
created own image image the screen
The fillOval() method can be used to draw circles. The method requires four arguments. The first two arguments
specify the upper-left corner of the rectangle (or square) enclosing the oval (or circle). They do not specify the
center of the circle. The last two arguments specify the width and height of the enclosing square, also known as
the circle’s diameter. The last two arguments do not specify the radius of the circle. On the other hand, we often
want to draw circles from the center with a certain radius. For a circle with center at (x, y) and radius r, use:
g.fillOval(x – r, y – r, 2 * r, 2 * r);
Be careful! The compiler will not translate 2r. You must write 2 * r.
If you can make the x change, say in a for-loop, you can draw a horizontal
row of repeated circles for a frame effect. How do you draw a vertical row
of circles?

Discussion
Buffering an image
Up to now, we drew graphics directly on the panel by sending commands to the g object in paintComponent().
Starting with Lab03 we will draw the image in an off-screen buffer, or temporary storage area, and then “paste”
the complete image on the screen once at the end. Drawing to a buffer is much faster than drawing to the screen.
When we start animation, with lots of drawing commands, using the buffer eliminates images that flicker.
To store such a buffered image object we declare a private field myImage (line 10). We instantiate the
BufferedImage object in the Panel's constructor (line 14). That BufferedImage object has a Graphics object
associated with it (line 15). After that (line 16 and onwards), we send the familiar drawing, color, font, and
drawString() commands to the buffered Graphics object.
6 import java.awt.image.BufferedImage;
7 public class Panel03 extends JPanel
8 {
9 private final int N = 400;
10 private BufferedImage myImage;
12 public Panel03()
13 {
14 myImage = new BufferedImage(N, N, BufferedImage.TYPE_INT_RGB);
15 Graphics buffer = myImage.getGraphics();
16 buffer.setColor(Color.blue);
17 buffer.fillRect(0, 0, N, N);
All the graphics commands work exactly as you would expect them to. The only difference is that you are
sending messages to the buffered object. In order to actually see what you've drawn, you must “paste” the
buffered image onto the panel, using one command in paintComponent():
public void paintComponent(Graphics g)

{
g.drawImage(myImage, 0, 0, getWidth(), getHeight(), null);
}
The methods getWidth and getHeight return the current width and height of the panel. These values may
change during runtime if the user resizes the frame. When you resize, the image will change to fill up the panel.
The different objects work together in this fashion:
BufferedImage Graphics Graphics JPanel JFrame

Webbing and Sunshine
Objective
Calculating end-points and using drawLine().
Background
The first task is to draw webs at the corners. This for-loop draws a web in the
upper-right corner of the N x N image:
for(int k = 0; k <= 50; k++)

{
buffer.drawLine(N * k / 50, 0, N, N * k / 50);
}
Notice that 51 lines will be drawn. drawLine() takes two pairs of coordinates, the end points of each line. One
endpoint of each line needs to move from left to right across the top of the image while the other endpoint needs
to move from top to bottom down the right side of the image. If we can make x increase, then (x, 0) will slide the
top endpoint over. At the same time, an increasing y will slide (N, y) down. We can make x and y increase in a
for-loop, for as k increases from 0 to 50, the expression N * k / 50 increases from 0 to N in 50 equal increments.
Thus, the calculated coordinates (N * k / 50, 0) and (N, N * k / 50) together slide the x-coordinate of the first point
along the top and the y-coordinate of the second point down the right side. (Warning! Due to something called
"integer division," the expression k / 50 * N will evaluate to 0. Make sure to multiply N * k before dividing by
50.) You'll have to figure out how to move the endpoints for the other three corners.
x1, y1
x1, y1
The second task is to draw the rays of the sun. The center is at (x, y) but each of the
other endpoints must be calculated. From geometry, we know that in any right
triangle the sine of an angle is the ratio of its opposite side to its hypotenuse and the x1, y1
cosine of an angle is the ratio of its adjacent side to its hypotenuse. This means that
if we know the angle and the length of the hypotenuse, we can determine the lengths θ x1, y1
of the opposite and adjacent sides, which are the coordinates (x1, y1). The angle θ x, y
changes from 0 to 360 in equal increments, depending on how many rays we want.
We'll use a for-loop to change the angle, of course. Inside the for-loop we will
calculate the (x1, y1) coordinates and draw the line.
It happens that Java's Math.cos() and Math.sin() methods require radian arguments.
Since most people prefer to think in degrees, we multiply degree measures by
Math.PI / 180. Also, these trigonometry methods return decimal values, so we need
to cast the coordinates to integers using (int). For example:
x1 = (int)(x + size * Math.cos(angle * Math.PI /

180));

buckets, a 3-gallon bucket and a 5-gallon bucket, how 8 {
9 public static void main(String args[])
can you measure out exactly 4 gallons? The algorithm 10 {
to implement is: 11 JFrame frame = new JFrame("Buckets");
1. Fill the five-gallon bucket. 12 frame.setSize(600, 400);
13 frame.setLocation(100, 100);
2. Pour from five into three until three is full.

7. Done! The amount left in five is exactly 4. 20 Bucket five = new Bucket(5);

empty, and pour. Look at the API for details. 23 }
24 }
Assignment: Write Driver04 to implement the algorithm to get exactly 4 gallons. Don’t change BucketPanel!
Until now, each object of a class had its own copy of each method in that class. Each method was duplicated and
belonged to each individual object. However, sometimes it is convenient to make methods belong, not to each
object, but to the class, as class methods. Because class methods are not duplicated, a programmer thinks of them
as “static,” and Java uses the keyword static to indicate them. Look at the Bucket API and notice that about half
the methods are static and half are not. Let’s talk about:
public static void setSpeed()
public static Boolean useTotal()
public void pourInto()
The keyword static means that the objects don’t get their own instance (copy) of these methods. In other words,
there is only one copy of useTotal() and of setSpeed(), but lots of instances of pourInto(). It
makes sense that speed and total volume belong to the class, not to any one object. The dot-notation in line 17
indicates that the Bucket class itself “knows” how to setSpeed(). Static methods add powers to the class, but not
to the objects of the class.

Buckets, Part II
Objective
Class field vs. instance field
Background
The keyword static means there will be only one copy no matter how many objects are created. static can
apply not only to methods but also to fields. Part of the code in the Bucket class looks like:
class Bucket
public class Bucket
{ totalWater 10
private static int totalWater;
private int myWater;
(object) three
...
myWater 3
}
This code creates one copy of the static field totalWater

(object) seven
but two instances of the dynamic field water. Each Bucket
myWater 7
object stores its own unique and private value of water.
Notice that 10 equals 3 plus 7.
In the code for Driver04, you called the class 5 import edu.fcps.Bucket;
method Bucket.useTotal(false). The 6 import javax.swing.*;
effect of this mystery command was not to use 7 public class Driver04a
the static field totalWater. Instead each 8 {
bucket object kept track of its own volume of 9 public static void main(String args[])
10 {
water, as is usual with objects. In that program, 11 JFrame frame = new JFrame("Buckets");
when either bucket held a certain number of 12 frame.setSize(600, 400);
gallons, it turned that number from white to red. 13 frame.setLocation(100, 100);
Run it again and notice when the little white 14 frame.setDefaultCloseOperation(
numbers turn red. JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
15 frame.setContentPane(new BucketPanel());
In contrast, the code for Driver04a has a call in 16 frame.setVisible(true);
line 18 to Bucket.useTotal(true). The 17 Bucket.setSpeed(5);
18 Bucket.useTotal(true);
effect of this is to use the static field 19 Bucket five = new Bucket(5);
totalWater, which will keep track of the total 20 Bucket three = new Bucket(3);
volume of water in all the buckets. In this case, 21 // implement the algorithm here
when both buckets hold a certain number of 22
gallons, it turns that number from white to red.
Assignments
Lab04a: Modify Driver04. This time, track the total volume of water. Turn the white numbers to red, showing

Bugs
Objective
To use a resource class to solve a problem.
Background
In object-oriented programming, objects have
encapsulated data and methods. The idea is that the details
of the implementation are hidden from you, the user. The
API lists the class’s fields, constructors, and methods.
What does a bug know? Bugs know where they are. Each
bug stores its position as two integers in its private fields.
These x- and y-coordinates are the only data stored by a
bug object.
How do you create bugs? You instantiate a bug object by

using its 2-arg constructor. The 2-arg constructor requires
that you specify both an x- and a y- position .
What can bugs do? Bugs are able to tell you where they
are. They will report their position through their two
public int methods getX() and getY().
A bug can also tell if it is at the same position as another

bug. It does this by asking that bug for its position and
comparing those values to its own position. When you call
the public boolean method sameSpot() on a bug and tell
it which other bug to compare itself to, the return value of
the method is either true or false, indicating whether or not
the two bugs are next to each other.
What else can bugs do? A bug can also walk towards another bug. You have to tell the bug which other bug to
walk towards and also what percentage of the total distance to travel. Thus, the public void method
walkTowards() requires two arguments, one bug and one decimal number representing the percentage of the
total distance to travel.
Are bugs able to draw lines? Look at the API. The API says nothing
about drawing lines. How will you draw lines?
Specification
Filename Unit2\Lab05\Driver05.java (load). Create four bugs located
in the four corners of your image. So long as any two bugs are not
standing at the same position, have each bug walk ten percent of the
way towards its clockwise neighbor. At each iteration of this process,

each pair of neighbors.

The Turtle class
In the early 1970s MIT introduced a turtle to the LOGO
language. Turtles are similar to Bugs and Robots, but are
much more complex and powerful.
What can Turtles do? Let's look at its API.
1. "static" means that the class owns one copy of each

method. Circle the static methods. One of those static
methods controls the speed at which the turtles move.
Write the command to make the turtles move at speed 5.
__________________________
Hint: recall that the Turtle class "owns" the method.
2. Another class method turns the crawling off, which
makes the turtles draw very fast indeed. Write that
command here: ___________________
3. A third class method clears the screen and changes the
background color. Write that command here:
___________________________
4. The "non-static" methods are duplicated inside each
turtle object. Mark the four methods with which you can
tell the turtle to move. If smidge is a turtle, tell smidge
to turn right 45 degrees: __________________
5. Tell smidge to leave a line as it walks forward 50
steps: _____________________
_____________________
6. Accessor methods get data from the object’s fields.
They usually begin with "get". How many accessor
methods are in each turtle object? ____
7. Modifier methods usually begin with "set". Tell
smidge to set its color to yellow and its marker thickness
to 10 pixels wide. ___________________
___________________
8. Which method is abstract? ________________
Since one method is abstract, the whole Turtle class is
abstract, meaning that you can't instantiate any Turtle
objects directly. Instead, you will extend the Turtle class
into concrete subclasses, such as SquareTurtle,
PolygonTurtle, and TwistyTurtle. In those subclasses,
your job will be to write appropriate code in the
drawShape() method.

Discussion
Classes, Abstract Classes, and Objects
When you first see a new class, the question you should always ask is: what can this class do to itself?
The Turtle class has both static and dynamic fields and methods. The static fields and methods stay with the class
and the dynamic fields and methods are duplicated in each object.
The Turtle class has (at least) four static methods,

which the class "knows". Static (or class) methods
often affect the environment of the objects. The
Turtle class knows how to clear(), setSpeed(), and
setCrawl(). Most likely, these three set-methods
change the data stored in three private fields. clear() getImage()
setSpeed()
setCrawl()
The Turtle class is abstract because at least one
method, in this case drawShape(), is abstract..
If you were able to instantiate objects from the Turtle

class, each Turtle object would have both fields and setColor ()
The Turtle class getColor()
instance methods. BGcolor , speed, crawl
myImage forward()
The private fields store information about the turtle's Turtle
position, heading, pen color, and pen state. myX, myY, myH
turnLeft()
myColor, penDown,
Some methods are simple get and set methods, but
some are much more complex, such as turnLeft() and drawShape()
forward().
turnRight()
The Turtle class also has private methods, such as
computeHeading(), and probably other private helper computeHeading()
methods.
isa
The SquareTurtle class, which inherits lots of

functionality from Turtle, has one additional private
field and one additional set method. It has four
constructors, which we usually don't draw in these SquareTurtle
setSize()
mySize
object diagrams. SquareTurtle also implements
Turtle's drawShape() method. Therefore, we can drawShape()
instantiate objects of the SquareTurtle class.
A good assignment would be to write a two-page

paper that compares and contrasts the designs of the
Bug, Turtle, and Robot resource classes. Include a
class diagram similar to those above illustrating the
Athlete API.

Square Turtles
Objective
To understand turtles and implement an abstract method. Turtle
Background
Look at the API for SquareTurtle: Notice these important points:
1. SquareTurtle extends Turtle. This creates a hierarchy where Turtle is the super-class SquareTurtle
and SquareTurtle is the sub-class. SquareTurtle inherits everything Turtle knows.
2. The SquareTurtle class has four constructors. The default constructor gives you one kind of SquareTurtle.
The other constructors allow you to instantiate SquareTurtles with different values.
The upper-left corner is (0, 0). SquareTurtle’s default constructor

SquareTurtle() puts a turtle at the center of the screen, at location
(300, 300), facing north, with size = 50. In other words, the default
constructor is exactly the same as new SquareTurtle(300, 300,
90, 50);. The squares shown at the right were drawn with three
different turtles. Write the calls to those three turtle constructors:
left: __________________________
center: __________________________
right: _______________________________
3. What private data does a SquareTurtle store? ______________
4. What set method allows you to change a SquareTurtle’s private data?___________ What other way can you
use to set an object's private data? ________________________
5. SquareTurtle has one instance method, drawShape(). Since drawShape() was abstract in Turtle, SquareTurtle
must provide a definition drawShape(). Overriding a method is when a sub-class provides a definition for a
super-class method. The overridden method is the one that gets used by SquareTurtle objects.

Access Modifiers
The two access modifiers we will use in this course are public and private. Every program outside the class
can use the public methods. Only methods inside the class can use the private methods. As a matter of
convention all data fields are private.
public class FlowerTurtle extends Turtle

{
private double mySize;
private Color myColor;
. . .
} setSize()
The driver program, which acts as a client of the FlowerTurtle server, FlowerTurtle
setColor()
cannot directly access the private values mySize and myColor. (The mySize
prefix my is also a convention, meant to convey the fact that each myColor
drawShape()
object knows its own size and its own color.) The driver is able to
change mySize and myColor only through public methods. The two drawPetals()
“set” methods, also called modifiers or mutators, allow the
user/client/driver to change the initial values.
drawStem()
public class Driver08
{
public static void main(String[] args)
{
FlowerTurtle lisa = new FlowerTurtle(300.0, 50.0, Color.red);
lisa.setSize(25.0); //modifier method
lisa.setColor(Color.blue); //modifier method
lisa.drawShape(); //public instance method
}
}
Most methods we write will be tagged public so that those methods are accessible from other classes. However,
in FlowerTurtle, the two helper methods will be tagged private and are only to be used by a FlowerTurtle. A
FlowerTurtle’s drawShape() method draws a pretty flower. “Drawing a flower” is broken into two parts, to draw
the petals and then to draw the stem. Therefore, the code in drawShape() is as simple as possible:
public void drawShape()

{
drawPetals(); //private instance method
drawStem(); //private instance method
}
The actual drawing of the flower is taken care of by the two private helper methods drawPetals() and drawStem().
Since Driver08.java is only interested in calling drawShape, in order to draw a complete flower, these two helper
methods do not need to be public.
private void drawPetals()

{
. . . //code for private instance method
}
Two-28
Java
Unit2
Lab08
Flower Turtles
Objective
To tiptoe through the tulips.
setSize()
Background
One other access issue has to do with overridden methods. Once a method FlowerTurtle
setColor()
has been overridden, the original superclass method cannot be invoked. mySize
Usually, this overriding is exactly what we want. Here is an example myColor
drawShape()
where overriding doesn't help us:
drawPetals()
public class Driver08
{
public static void main(String[] args) drawStem()
{
FlowerTurtle lisa = new FlowerTurtle(300.0, 50.0, Color.red);
lisa.setSize(25.0); //calls lisa's setSize()
lisa.setColor(Color.blue); //calls lisa's setColor()
lisa.drawShape();
}
}
Lisa's setSize() works as intended. However, the author wrote setColor() to simply store a value in myColor. It is
Turtle’s setColor() that actually sets the color of lisa's pen color. The author really should have given a different
name to lisa's setColor() method.
However, all is not lost. The superclass's setColor() can be called from within the definition of the class that
overrode it. So from inside FlowerTurtle, Turtle’s setColor() can be invoked. For example:
private void drawPetals()

{
super.setColor(myColor); //calls Turtle’s setColor, changing the color of the pen
. . .
}
This syntax is only valid from within FlowerTurtle’s definition. You cannot do this from Driver08.

References
Here is a class method that requires an argument of type Turtle.
public static void twisties(Turtle arg)

{ arg
arg.setPenDown(false);
TwistyTurtle
arg.turnRight((int)(Math.random() * 360));
OBJECT
arg.forward((int)(Math.random() * 200));
arg.setPenDown(true);
arg.drawShape(); smidge
}
{
Turtle smidge = new TwistyTurtle();
twisties(smidge);
}
drawShape() is specified in the Turtle class. But what actually happens when twisties() executes? First, it
chooses a random turn and a random direction. Then drawShape() depends on the type of the object that is
actually passed. Recall that smidge is a reference to our turtle object. When smidge is passed to the method
twisties(), only the reference is copied. No new turtle object is created by passing a turtle as an argument to a
method. Both the reference to smidge in main and the reference to arg in twisties() point to the same object.
The actual object, of course, is of type TwistyTurtle. Thus, arg is a reference of type Turtle that points to an
object that is a sub-class of Turtle. The superclass reference is pointing to a subclass object, i.e, we have
polymorphism. The computer waits until runtime to decide which drawShape to execute. At that point, the actual
type of the object that arg points to is known. This mechanism, which produces the polymorphic behavior, is
called dynamic binding or late binding.
Turtle
SquareTurtle PolygonTurtle FlowerTurtle TwistyTurtle
In this case, Turtle happens to be an abstract class and drawShape() is an abstract method. Both are, in some
sense, empty and/or imaginary, but that doesn't matter. It doesn't matter because the concrete subclasses do have
code for drawShape(). As long as the Turtle reference named arg points to an object of one of Turtle’s sub-
classes, drawShape() will know what to do.
Extra credit question: what does this code produce?

Twisty Turtles
Objective
To draw a pretty picture with a turtle.
Background
TwistyTurtles extend Turtle. TwistyTurtles have no new private fields.
They have one constructor which is a three-arg constructor for location
and heading (use super). The constructor also sets the pen color (use
super). TwistyTurtles implement only one method, drawShape(), which
has one loop. You may use either a for-loop or a while-loop.
The TwistyTurtle at the right starts with k = 5. So long as k is less than

400, the turtle moves forward k pixels and turns left 123 degrees. Then k
increments by 10 for the next iteration.
A similar loop with a turn of twenty

degrees and an increment of only two
pixels produces the TwistyTurtle2
shown at the left. This loop repeats
until the k is 125.
TwistyTurtle3, to the right, draws an

entire square based on the current
value of k. It then turns forty-five
degrees each time and increments k
by five pixels. k ends at 150.
You should experiment with your own values for the length of the side, the
increment, and the angle.

If the ball moves a little bit, and the timer fires 39 myBuffer.setColor(BACKGROUND);

How can we make a Ball move, e.g., 55
horizontally? Get the Ball's x-position,
add the delta-x, and make it the new x-position. The code for this is Line 44.
How can the Ball know when it hits an edge? First, notice that the Ball does not know the dimensions of the
panel, until it is passed those values in Line 42. Second, the Ball "knows" the coordinates of its center, but it
bounces off an edge according to its radius. The code in Line 44-60 has to account for that.
How do the dx and dy change when a Ball hits, e.g., the right edge? How dy
many edges do you have to worry about? dx

Get the Prize
Objective
Using multiple classes with appropriate responsibilities.
Background
Object-oriented programming attempts to distribute appropriate responsibilities to the different classes. Polkadots
should do polkadot stuff, balls should do ball stuff, and panels should organize them. In this lab, panel's
responsibility is also to decide when the moving ball actually hits the polkadot, to count those times, and to
display the count. That is, PrizePanel eventually will have an additional private field to store the number of hits,
a private method called collide and a private method called distance.
Study the panel's Listener. 36 private class Listener implements ActionListener

ball hits the polkadot, the hit counter 49 myBuffer.setColor(Color.black);
goes up by one and the polkadot jumps 50 myBuffer.setFont(new Font("Monospaced", Font.BOLD, 24));

Line 58: How do they know they collide? The ball and the polkadot each "know" their x2, y2
own position. If the distance between their centers (recall the distance formula from
algebra) is less than the sum of their respective radii, then they hit.
x1, y1
The distance formula uses both Math.sqrt() and Math.pow(), which return
doubles. The expression to square the difference between x2 and x1 is Math.pow(x2 – x1, 2);

Riddle Me This
Objective
To make your teacher and classmates laugh.
Background
Ever since Lab03, we have pretended that myImage's image was a Graphics type object. In truth, Graphics is
abstract, so the actual object created is a subclass of Graphics. Then when the Java programmers decided to add
more powers to the Graphics class, they chose to extend it. They named the new class Graphics2D, and also kept
it abstract. Look at the API for Graphics2D.
Graphics2D inherits familiar Graphics methods like fillRect(), drawPolyline(), setColor(), and setFont(). It
overrides and overloads the method drawString(). Graphics2D helpfully defines new methods setBackground()
and setStroke(). The methods setStroke() and BasicStroke(), which takes a floating point number as an argument,
can be used to change the thickness of lines like this:
myBuffer.setStroke(new BasicStroke(10.0f)); //10 pixels wide
So far, so good. However, the method myImage.getGraphics()

Graphics
returns a Graphics reference, because the abstract Graphics class requires
that. The question is, how do we make the new Graphics2D commands
available to a simple Graphics reference? To do so, we must cast the
getGraphics() return reference to its subclass type. The reference Graphics2D
becomes "bigger" because it points to the subclass with all its methods,
including the new ones. After the cast, getGraphics() returns a
Graphics2D object. The cast occurs in line 19, inside the parentheses: some concrete class
Clearly we are using the

Prize with Bumper
Objective
Designing a class from scratch (mostly).
Background
The panel is just like Lab12, with a moving ball, a jumping prize, and a
counter, but has a rectangular bumper somewhere in the middle of the
screen. The bumper is (of course) an object of the Bumper class. The
author had to ask him/herself a series of questions, including:
1. Is there a suitable class that Bumper could extend?
2. What private data should a bumper know about itself?
3. What constructors would be nice to have?
4. What get and set methods are needed?
5. What instance methods are needed? That is, what should a bumper know how to do?
#1: The author thought about extending Polkadot because both have x and y coordinates. However, since
Bumper does not have a diameter or a radius, it seemed better not to have Bumper extend anything.
#2: Bumpers at a minimum need to know their upper left hand corner, their x-width, and their y-width, because
that is how they are drawn. It might be nice to have different colored bumpers.
#3: The default constructor always places the bumper in the same place. It would be nice to place it in different
places with different sizes. Let’s make two constructors, a no-arg and a 5-arg constructor.
#4: Get-methods are needed to get the x, y, x-width, and y-width. Set-methods might not be needed, unless the
position, size, and color of the bumper need to be changed. If we make Pong, for instance, we will need setY().
#5: A bumper should know how to draw itself, like Polkadot and Ball. If a bumper knows how to jump to a
random location, that would change the game each time we ran it.
Somewhere, we must define how the ball bounces off the bumper. Bouncing off the corners of the bumper
involves “vector algebra.” Luckily for you, the author already wrote and encapsulated all that code in a separate
class. BumperCollision.collide(bumper, ball) is the syntax for calling that magic method.

Karel the Robot
Objective
To solve a really hard problem.
array
Background
We accomplished the appearance of moving balls by quickly
erasing a picture and drawing it again in a slightly new
position. The same appearance of motion can be
[0]
accomplished by cycling through a series of images stored in
an array, if the images are chosen carefully. (This is the way
[1]
animated gifs and sprites work.)
[2]
As the values of the array's index cycles from 0 to 1 to 2 to 3
to 0 to 1 and so on, the image that actually gets displayed
[3]
keeps changing. Each image is just a still shot but the
cycling of images gives the appearance of motion.
This lab will use karel the robot images stored in an array. Karel
can face either east, north, west, or south. Your code will have to
select which image is appropriate. The first, basic assignment is to
make the robot move around the edges of the grid.
array
As with all images, the (xPos, yPos) coordinates of the images [0] [1] [2] [3]
refer to the upper-left hand corner. Unfortunately, the karel
images are not square. That makes proper spacing a bit tricky in
this lab. To get the width and height of the image stored in myArray[0] use the commands:
int width = myArray[0].getImage().getWidth(null);

int height = myArray[0].getImage().getHeight(null);
To actually display the image stored in myArray[0] use the command (last seen in Lab02):
myBuffer.drawImage(myArray[0].getImage(), xPos, yPos, null);

you’ll need to define five methods, even 44 }
if you only use one of them. On the
other hand, as a convenience, the MouseAdapter class provides default
(empty) definitions for these methods, so only the methods that you
override need to be defined.
Notice that e.getX() calls an instance method of a mysterious

MouseEvent object named “e”. This object e is no doubt instantiated
somewhere up in the MouseAdapter hierarchy. Whenever you click, this
e object is automatically passed to the mouseClicked method. The e
object has its own set of methods. Thus, e.getX() returns the x location
of the click, and similarly for e.getY(). Study Lines 41 and 42, which
move the ball to the spot where you click.
Specification
Copy all files from Lab12. Then modify the mouseClicked method to get three different behaviors from e:
button boolean method desired behaviors
left click <none> moves the polkadot to where you clicked
right click e.isMetaDown() moves the ball to where you clicked
Shift + left click e.isShiftDown() randomly changes the speed and direction of the ball

Turtle, from scratch
The shell shown below codes a primitive Turtle class described in Lab06. This primitive turtle does not attempt
to show animation. Why are the img and the colors all static fields? Why are x, y, and theta not static fields?
public class Turtle

{
private static BufferedImage img;
private static int black = 0;
private static int blue = 255; // 2^8-1
private static int green = 65280; //(2^8-1)*2^8
private static int red = 16711680; //(2^8-1)*2^16
private static int white = 16777215; // 2^24-1
private double x, y, theta;
static
{
img = new BufferedImage(800, 600, BufferedImage.TYPE_INT_RGB);
}
public Turtle()
{
x = img.getWidth()/2; //start at the center
y = img.getHeight()/2; //start at the center
theta =9 0; //start facing north
}
public static Image getImage()
{
return img;
}
public void turnLeft(double a)
{
theta += a;
}
public void forward(double r)
{
// Your code goes here!
}
}
You’ll need to complete the method forward()by calculating each pixel

on the path and setting it to white. For instance, to set one pixel at location
(x, y) of img to white, the command is:
r
img.setRGB( (int)x, (int)y, white );
You'll need a for-loop, obviously. You might find the trig concepts from x, y
Lab03 to be useful. Recall that Java works in radians. Be careful not to set
a pixel that is outside the image.
Feel free to add more constructors and methods to your Turtle class. Some
possible methods to add are turnRight(), back(), penDown(), setColor(), and clear().

Objective
To solve a problem by first writing a resource class.
Background
public class Lab18 extends JPanel
{
{
Turtle t = new Turtle();
t.turnLeft(5);
for(int k=0; k<4; k++)
{
t.forward(100);
t.turnLeft(90);
}
JFrame f = new JFrame();

f.setSize(800,600);
f.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
f.setContentPane(new Lab18());
f.setVisible(true);
}
public void paintComponent(Graphics g)
{
g.drawImage(Turtle.getImage(),0,0,getWidth(),getHeight(),null);
}
}
Specification
Filename Unit2\Lab18\Turtle.java. Finish the Turtle class from the previous page.
Filename Unit2\Lab18\Driver18.java. Test your Turtle class with the driver shown above. Then modify the
driver to draw a more interesting picture with your built-from-scratch turtles.

Lab18
Write the methods drawLine, drawCircle, and drawOval using only the BufferedImage method setRGB.
public void drawLine(BufferedImage img, int x1, int y1, int x2, int y2)
{
public void drawCircle(BufferedImage img, int x, int y, int r)

{
public void drawOval(BufferedImage img, int x, int y, int w, int h)

Array of Polkadots
Objective
Multiple polkadots in arrays.
Background
Here is declaration of a Polkadot reference:
private Polkadot pd;
Here is the instantiation of the Polkadot object using the 4-arg constructor:
int x = (int)(Math.random() * N);

int y = (int)(Math.random() * N);
pd = new Polkadot(x, y, 25, Color.red);
Obviously, if we want 50 polkadots on the panel, we will want to use an

array of polkadots. We need to declare the array reference:
private Polkadot[] myPDarray;
And then create 50 objects in the panel's constructor with:
myPDarray = new Polkadot[50];

for(int k=0; k<array.length; k++)
{
x = (int)(Math.random() * N);
y = (int)(Math.random() * N);
myPDarray[k] = new Polkadot(x, y, 25, Color.red);
}
As you know, Polkadot objects know how to draw themselves. You will have to have each polkadot draw itself
in the panel's Listener method.
The panel will also need a new collide method, something with the header
public void collide(Ball b, Polkadot[] myPDarray)
This method will have to visit each polkadot and check to see if the distance between the ball and that polkadot is
less than the sum of their respective radii.
Specification
Copy all files from Lab12. Modify PrizePanel to make an array of 50 (or 100, or 1000) polkadots. As before,
when the ball hits a polkadot, the polkadot jumps to a new position.

Array of Prizes
Objective
Polkadots, balls, and arrays, all re-written.
Background Spot
At every step of the way, the author could have made int x, y, r
different design decisions, both large and small. For Color c
example, here is an alternative hierarchy: boolean intersect(Spot)
void drawme(Graphics)
Prize Pinball
void lightup() int dx, dy, rightEdge, leftEdge
void setbound(int, int)
void tick()
int littlerandom()
In this version, prizes change color (from red to yellow) when they are hit by the pinball.
In this version, pinballs don't bounce at the same speed. Instead, they bounce in the reverse direction at a different
speed--a new, small random number.
Here is the actionPerformed method of this version of PrizePanel:
119 private class Listener implements ActionListener

120 {
122 {
123 buffer.setColor(Color.white);
124 buffer.fillRect(0,0,N,N);
126 for(int k=0; k<num; k++)
127 {
128 if(pb.intersect(array[k]))
129 array[k].lightup();
130 array[k].drawme(buffer);
131 }
133 pb.tick();
134 pb.drawme(buffer);
136 repaint();
137 }
Specification
Write Spot.java, Prize.java, and Pinball.java to the specifications shown above.
Filename Unit2\Lab20\PrizePanel.java. Write the panel. The Listener code is given above.
Filename Unit2\Lab20\Lab20.java. Create the driver.
