At My Fingertips
Rapid Playground
Compose a graphic of a sliced kiwi fruit.
In our graphic, the small seeds of the kiwi are distributed in two rings.
They are dark (the color is already defined in SEED_COLOR
)
and have an elliptical shape (about 2/3 as wide as long).
Implement the kiwi_seed
function.
Use ellipse.
Compose a sliced kiwi without any seeds and without the core.
Use the given colors for the brownish skin (SKIN_COLOR
),
and the greenish flesh (FLESH_COLOR
).
The kiwi should have the given overall diameter
and the flesh should be 95% of that diameter.
Create a function ring
that produces a ring of count
seeds, evenly spread across the 360 degrees of a circle.
The inside diameter of the ring should correspond to diameter
(the seeds should form a ring just outside the diameter).
Repetitively call kiwi_seed
to produce the ring of seeds.
Hint: If you need help, check out the Sliced Pitaya activity.
The inside of a kiwi, around the seeds, is slightly darker. We can compose this darker area using two rings of triangles.
Each ring consists of isoceles triangles with the given side length and a 20 degree angle.
Before creating a ring, implement the kiwi_triangle
function to construct a single triangle.
Insight:
To create a ring of triangles we can use the ring
function we originally wrote to create seed rings. It doesn't really matter what graphic we repeat in the ring: a seed, or a triangle, or anything else! This is great code reuse!
Here is a ring consisting of 12 triangles, with a ring diameter of 50 and a triangle side length of 25:
Now we have all the ingredients for our sliced kiwi.
The kiwi consists of the sliced_kiwi_base
, two ring
s of kiwi_triangle
s, two ring
s of kiwi_seed
s, and a core circle.
Each seed ring is composed of 24 seeds, with a seed diameter of 5% of the kiwi diameter:
Each triangle ring is composed of 12 triangles and has a ring diameter of 25% of the kiwi's diameter:
Place all rings on top of the kiwi base, and place a core circle (with 25% of the kiwi diameter) on top.
