Arrays

Difficulty : Beginner-Intermediate This tutorial assumes you have a basic understanding of coding in Processing or p5, and are comfortable using variables, if statements and for loops.

So far we've learnt that we can use variables to name data in our code, as so:

var myVariable = 200;

console.log(myVariable);

And we know that we can use these variable in our sketch. In the following example I create variables X and Y, and use them to as the x and y coordinates in an ellipse function

var x = 100; var y = 100;

function setup() { createCanvas(400, 400); }

function draw() { background(220);

ellipse(x, y, 20,20); }
