CS 324e Coding Samples

Various Java programs to illustrate various concepts:

• ZipfChecker and WordInventory: Initial class to check Zipf's law on a text. (In this case, the complete works of Winston Churchill from Project Gutenberg.)

• Final version of ZipfChecker and WordInventory.

• Start of HelloGUI classes. Simple GUI creation in Java.

• Finished HelloGUI.

• EventExampleMain (Code that shows how to create and add buttons that respond to events)

• AnimationMain and AnimationPanel (Classes the set up an animation framework and show a very simple animation.)

• Completed version of AnimationPanel

• Code for initial version of WormChaser (WormChaseMain.java, WormChasePanel.java, and Worm.java)

• Code for the final version of WormChase (WormChaseMain.java, WormChasePanel.java, Worm.java, Sessile.java, Apples.java, Obstacles.java)

• Code for a some 2D graphics examples (GradientPaint, QuadCurve) palce in the old HelloGUI.java program.

• SimpleImageExamples. Code to load and display images. (Code must be modified to use images on your machine.)

• Various ImageFilters demoed. Split into 3 classes: ImagesMain.java, ImagesPanel.java, and FilterOps.java

• HelloUniverse. A "simple" class with a spinning colored cube. Standard program to test if Java3D is installed correctly.

• CheckerboardWorld.java (Class to show set up of basic Java3D scene. From chapter 15 of the book.)

• Completed CheckerboardWorld.java and CheckerFloor.java

• Checkers3D version to show effect of different divisions on spheres and wireframes

• MorphAndLathe: program that programmatically creates 3D shapes

• 3DLoader zip file with classes and models to load 3D models.

• Maze3D program. As demonstrated in class. Here are the support files. The program assumes these are in the project folder. (Maze file, background image, die image, box texture, cylinder texture)

• FractalLand. Example from KGPJ that generates a world with random terrain. A diamond - square algorithm is used to generate random, but realistic terrian.
