Lab polygons, combo box

Modify the PolygonsTest program to see the effect of using and not
using the super.paint()
With super.paint(), the applet area is wiped clear at the start of
each paint.

Create an array of Polygons:
Polygon [] polygons;            //declare array
polygons = new Polygon[1000];   //create array. No Polygons created.

Each new Polygon object will be the next available element in the
array. Use a global variable to keep track of what is the index and
number of objects in the area. Draw all the objects in each paint.
The array is useful for doing things with the polygons, like move them,
compare them, change their size....

polygons[num] = new Polygon(); //create Polygon element of array

An array of Color will have each element paired with the element in
the polygons array to be the color of that Polygon.
