This is a simple example and the flaw appears because when totalDrops gets to the end of the array it is reset back to 0. We could be more clever about recycling drops that get to the bottom back ro the top. Or another options would be to use an ArrayList, perhaps, to create a "infinite" stream of drops. See this example: http://www.learningprocessing.com/examples/chapter-23/example-23-2/ for more about ArrayLists. That’s correct.

Is this supposed to happen ? try it for totalDrops=10 -> the drops cant never reach the bottom.
