In this course, you will understand the concepts of Java graphics and event-driven programming. You will practice and learn these concepts by creating ten unique games in Java. 

The course will walk you through these ten games step-by-step so that you can understand every concept used in the course instead of blindly memorizing code.

Designing Games in Java with Graphics & Event-Driven Programming

What kind of listener must you add to a `JToolbar` object so the program will call a method when a toolbar button is clicked?

What kind of listener must you add to a <code>JToolbar</code> object so the program will call a method when a toolbar button is clicked?

Which one of these classes has a `write()` method for saving image files?

Which one of these classes has a <code>write()</code> method for saving image files?

What kind of listener must you add to a `JTextArea` object so the program will call a method before the user types text in that field?

What kind of listener must you add to a <code>JTextArea</code> object so the program will call a method before the user types text in that field?

What kind of listener must you add to a `JPanel` object so the program will call a method when the user drags the mouse?


What kind of listener must you add to a <code>JPanel</code> object so the program will call a method when the user drags the mouse?

The `x` and `y` coordinates of where the mouse was clicked before it started dragging

The `x` and `y` coordinates of where the mouse is currently in the middle of dragging

How far the mouse was dragged in the `x` and `y` directions so far

What do the `x` and `y` values represent in the following code?
```
public void mouseDragged(MouseEvent e) {
 int x = e.getX();
 int y = e.getY();
 redraw(x, y);
}
```

What do the <code>x</code> and <code>y</code> values represent in the following code?
<pre><code>public void mouseDragged(MouseEvent e) {
 int x = e.getX();
 int y = e.getY();
 redraw(x, y);
}
</code></pre>
