Both arrows — visuco

Challenge 7 of 20

Two questions and two lines, one inside each. Left has to take away rather than add, because left is the direction the numbers get smaller in, and the comments name both amounts.

Write both lines.

Lesson Make It Interactive Yourself

The scaffolding comes away here. From now on the missing part is a whole line, and the comment directly above the gap says what that line has to do:

// set x to mouseX

You write the line. Everything you need has been in the last seven topics.

A few reminders, because they are the things people get wrong when nothing is filled in for them.

A handler changes a variable. It never draws. Whatever a handler draws is thrown away before anyone sees it, so put the change in a variable and let everyFrame draw from it.

Every line ends with a semicolon and every name is spelled exactly as it is elsewhere in the sketch. mouseX has a capital X. lampColour is spelled the way it is declared at the top.

A question about a round thing measures distance to its middle and compares against half its width:

distance(mouseX, mouseY, 200, 180) < 70

A question about a box is four comparisons joined with &&, using the same numbers the rectangle is drawn with:

mouseX > 120 && mouseX < 280 && mouseY > 140 && mouseY < 240

A stretch — the button being held, a key being held — is asked about in everyFrame with mouseIsPressed or keyIsPressed. A moment — the button going down, a key coming up — gets a handler.

There is one handler here you have not used yet. whenKeyTyped runs when a character key is typed, and key holds the character. It works exactly like whenKeyPressed and is in the reference drawer with the rest of them.

If a line does not work, read the message in the results panel. It gives the line number for a misspelled name, and the picture beside yours is what you are aiming at — step through it a frame at a time and find the frame where the two stop agreeing.
