201 next assignment: Polygon, due 11/18/08

Requirements for the Polygon program:

• it uses a Java GUI
  
• it has a button labeled Clear to clear the drawing screen
  
• it instructs the user to click on the screen to set vertices for a convex polygon and draw big dots where the vertices are
  
• when the user clicks sufficiently near the first dot, the polygon is closed
  
• it reports the perimeter and area of the polygon
  
• it allows the user to scale (make larger or smaller) or rotate the polygon using GUI controls
  
• it uses a Matrix library that the student writes and affine transformations as shown in class to accomplish the scaling and rotating
  
• it updates the perimeter and area of the polygon as the user changes the scale

Due date: at the beginning of lab on Tuesday, November 18.

I'd get started now if I were you!
