Lab 2a

Purpose: Become more familiar with the basic drawing methods in Java Graphics.

Look at "Make your applet look like this" at the class web site.  
Make an applet that is the same as it.

Start with a copy of FirstApplet.java (there is no need to start from
a blank program each time, use some existing program and morph it into
the required one; there is no need to type in the "incantations" for
each new program).

Work on one object at a time, building up the program piece by piece.
Remember in JCreator: make a change to the .java file, compile it,
then execute the .html file to see the result.


When you finish this one do the next one, the 
"Make another one that looks like this" one.

When you finish that, do the math review on the class web site.  


**** SKIP *****
When it's done, upload the .html and .class files to your web site and
then make sure it runs from the web site.
Web browsers keep an applet in their cache which refreshing does not
reload the changed applet; you have to restart the browser to get the
new version of the applet (another reason to use appletviewer to
develop the applet).


Done already?
Make the drawing independent of the width and height of the applet
area by using the getWidth() and getHeight() methods which return the
current width and height of the applet area which change as the applet
area changes size in appletviewer (can't change the size in the
browser).
Download, compile, run the HelloApplet2.java in the AppletViewer and
change the size of the window to see the effect of using getHeight and
getWidth.
