Move a rectangle across a window by incrementing a variable. Start the shape at x coordinate 0 and use an if statement to have it stop at coordinate 100. Rewrite the sketch to use constrain( ) instead of the if statement. Fill in the missing code.

// Rectangle starts at location x
float x = 0;

void setup() {
  size(200,200);
}

void draw() {
  background(255);
  // Display object
  fill(0);
  rect(x,100,20,20);
  // Increment x
  x = x + 1;

    Hi Charlie, here is my lab 4

    // Rectangle starts at location x
    float x = 0;
    From Alice Schoessow
    void setup() {
    size(200,200);
    }

    void draw() {
    background(255);
    // Display object
    fill(0);
    rect(x,100,20,20);
    // Increment x
    x =x + 1;
    if (x >= width/2) {
    x = x – 1;
    }

    }
