How can I move a polygon?

[skyler]

Hi i'm a new member, and i'm using turing these days for school , and i'm having trouble moving the following polygon:

var x : array 1 .. 3 of int := init (110, 140, 170)
var y : array 1 .. 3 of int := init (410, 425, 410)
drawfillpolygon (x, y, 3, red)

If anyone can help me i'd be grateful, Thank you.

Hi, welcome to compsci.
First of all, thank you for using a descriptive title in your post.
Second of all, please use code tags. Highlite the section of your code that is from turing, and press the "Code" button directly above the post box.

Allright, now to help you.

You need a loop around the drawfillpolygon command.
Once you have that, the only way to move it is to change its co-ordinates

code:

var x : array 1 .. 3 of int := init (110, 140, 170) var y : array 1 .. 3 of int := init (410, 425, 410) loop    for i : 1..3       x(i) := x(i) + 1    end for    drawfillpolygon (x, y, 3, red)    Time.DelaySinceLast(30)    cls end loop

Also, consider using View.Update, but that is just something that everyone prefers, and not something directly related to your problem.

Thank you very much THEONETRUEGOD for your fast reply, and it really helped me alot , and for the "CODE" i'll try to use it next time even though i've never used it before but i'll try .

if you have any questions pertaining to anything Turing, look through the Turing Walkthrough, in which a HUGE collection of tutorials for just about anything Turing related are located good luck
