Random Star

ASSIGNMENT: Run the demo project several times. Sometimes it makes something that looks very similar to a star and sometimes it's pretty far off. Next, inspect the code carefully. Take a close look at how the random block works and how it is used in this project. Figuring out how the random block works is critical to being able to successfully complete this assignment.

Your job is to alter the demo project in the following ways:

  • Make three buttons and label them TRIANGLE, SQUARE, and DIAMOND. Place these buttons along the bottom of the project area.
  • Make an additional button which clears the project area. Place it at the top of the project area.
  • When the three SHAPE buttons are pressed the corresponding shape will be drawn above which ever button was pressed. The buttons will not erase the shapes drawn by the other buttons.
  • Use the same technique used in the demo project to produce the triangle, square, and diamond.
