Reference Library

Finding the reference library really useful on the processing website its great at telling you all the code and what to do with it. and helps you to fault find any variables or code you may be using incorrectly or have put in the wrong place. At present finding trial and error is the name of the game but hopefully it will start to become second nature. You can find the reference library here.

Just ordered the book

Looking forward to getting the book I have just ordered to help me along my path to enlightenment. Its a book called Learning Processing by Daniel Shiffman you can find out more information here. Hopefully this will allow me to follow the tutorials more easily and aid my learning of the code. Cant wait for it to arrive.

First Sketch

Here is my first sketch using processing a little boat which uses arcs, rectangles and triangles as well as the quad function

Lets get started...

Going to start off by using processing to draw simple 2D images and then get more complicated from there. Processing is a simple programming language based on JAVA, its a great way to start to learn how to programme you can find out more information on this website www.processing.org I have done some programming before using Java and pearl but it was a long time ago but I hope it all comes flooding back.

First Post...

Welcome to my blog this is my first post and my first blog so bear with me it may take a while to get going, but once up and running I hope to update it regularly. This blog is an in depth look at the highs and lows of learning processing. From here on out its all code code code, but once you look past that you get to see some pretty pictures and interactive content, just need to learn how to do it first. And thats what this blog is all about - learning new things and sharing it all with you if you care to read it.
