Below is my very rough code to create messy, random dots. It’s bloated, and you could do a lot to “bum” this code.<\/p>\n
\/\/ The statements in the setup() function \r\n\/\/ execute once when the program begins void setup() { size(600, 600); \r\n\/\/ Size should be the first statement stroke(255); \r\n\/\/ Set stroke color to white noLoop(); }\r\n\r\nfloat y = 300; \/\/ this is the midpoint of the 600px tall sketch\r\n\r\n\/\/ The statements in draw() are run until the \r\n\/\/ program is stopped. Each statement is run in \r\n\/\/ sequence and after the last line is read, the first \r\n\/\/ line is run again. \r\n\r\nvoid draw() { \r\n\/\/ background(125); \/\/ Set the background to black (I commented this out - Steve) \r\nfloat rando = random(-10,10); \/\/ choose a random number from -10 to 10 \r\nfloat randColorR = random(255); \/\/ Pick a value for RED from 0-255 \r\nfloat randColorG = random(255); \/\/ Pick a value for GREEN from 0-255 \r\nfloat randColorB = random(255); \/\/ Pick a value for BLUE from 0-255 \r\n\r\nnoStroke(); \r\nfill(randColorR,randColorG,randColorB,5); \r\n\r\n\/\/ fill in the RGB, and the last value is for opacity!
