JApplet creates a ball that bounces and gets progressively less high in Java
public class Circle extends JApplet {
public void paint(Graphics g) {
int x=100;
int y=100;
int diameter=50;
int xResize=500;
int yResize=500;
super.paint(g);
resize(xResize,yResize);
g.drawOval(x, y, diameter, diameter);
}
}
So I am trying to create a ball that bounces up and down and progressively gets smaller. I need to use the following code as a class that will set up my next class that will actually carry out the action. I know that I need to set up the current code that I have into constructors, instance variables and methods to create objects from but I can't seem to figure out how to do that.
Also how would I make the drawn image move up and down across the JApplet?
This is a basic example of the idea
Basically, when you press the spacebar, it generates a vertical movement which slows over time till it runs out of energy, it will then fall and rebound until it has run out of "bounce"

The example introduces concepts of Key Bindings, Swing Timer and basic custom painting
