Late Late Late

Sorry about being so late with this. Been to busy to take the time to upload the files etc....

Anyway, because I'm so late ... if you can't do the homework in time for sunday class I'll understand. Of course, I'd still like you to try:

Homework:

Choose any 2 of 3.

1) Convert the bouncing ball example into a class. The bouncing ball class would be rather similar to the Particle class located in the homework zip "classes/particle"

2) Write a custom function that attaches movieClips to the stage

3) Work on a personal project.

Some of you have expressed the desire to begin work on a personal project. Please feel free to do so for this weeks homework.

Third Fall Class

Homework:

This week there are a few options for homework:

1) take the ball bouncing example from class and add 1 or more balls

2) take the file called template_2.fla and add more pages and buttons

3) During "one on one" I may have mentioned something for you to do indiviually... I may have told you how to fix one or more bugs in your homework or how to simplify code. So, altering and/or improving your homework from last week is also an option.

For those of you who really want to practice, try to do the first 2 assignments.

ZENO ROTATION:

Two people ran into problems when trying to use Zeno's Paradox to rotate a movieClip. The reason is the the _rotation property of a movieClip can only be set to a value between 0 and 360. I've included a file in the zip that shows a work around for this... it's called zeno_rotation.fla.
