Game: hit balloons
) Write a program that displays a balloon in a random
position in a panel (Figure 16.27a). Use the left- and right-arrow keys to point
the gun left or right to aim at the balloon (Figure 16.27b). Press the up-arrow
key to fire a small ball from the gun (Figure 16.27c-d). Once the ball hits the
balloon, the debris is displayed (Figure 16.27e) and a new balloon is dis-
played in a random location (Figure 16.27f). If the ball misses the balloon, the
ball disappears once it hits the boundary of the panel. You can then press the
up-arrow key to fire another ball. Whenever you press the left- or the right-
arrow key, the gun turns 5 degrees left or right. (Instructors may modify the
game as follows: 1. Display the number of the balloons destroyed; 2. display
a countdown timer (e.g., 60 seconds) and terminate the game once the time
expires; and/or 3. allow the balloon to rise dynamically.)

Game: eye-hand coordination
) Write a program that displays a circle of radius
10
pixels filled with a random color at a random location on a panel, as shown
in Figure 16.28c. When you click the circle, it disappears and a new random-
color circle is displayed at another random location. After twenty circles are
clicked, display the time spent in the panel, as shown in Figure 16.28d.
