This homework is due on February 10, 2011. and must be submitted as a pde file to the UNCA moodle activity HW 3.
In this assignment, you're invided to create your own tribute to Groundhog Day, which occured on Feb 2nd this year. By the way, on Feb 2 at 7:25 AM, Punxsutawney Phil did NOT see his shadow thereby predicting an early spring!
Read pages 127 to 143 of the textbook and then write a program that fills your canvas with groundhogs. Use a canvas size of 400×400. You must use translate(), scale(), rotate(), and a loop control structure to receive full credit for this assignment---see the grading rubric below.
Remember to comment your code and to submit only your source code.
Here's a fairly simple groundhog display that I generated called "woodchuck clock." I also describe the steps that I used in developing the program.
Grades will be based on the following criteria.
10% | image size |
20% | use of one or more loops |
60% | use of rotate(), scale(), & translate() |
10% | documentation of code |
