[Cs254f11] Making simple graphics

[Lee Spector]

Hi Max,

One approach is to do what I did in clojinc -- search in the clojinc file for:

;; simple graphics -- but not as simple as I'd like

and the code following that will show you one way of drawing shapes in a graphics window. It's kind of a lame way to do it, for a couple of reasons, but it has the virtues of requiring no extra libraries and being relatively concise (but not quite as concise as I would like). Still, it might do what you need.

Much nicer and more sophisticated graphics can be created using the clj-processing library. I think I demoed that very briefly earlier in the semester, but I'd be happy to do so again some time (maybe even tomorrow... I'm still mulling a couple of different options for tomorrow's class).
