Java Demonstrations
 
On this page you will find some Java Applets which I have collected from various sources to demonstrate ways in which Java can be used.
 
TicTacToe   
This is a Java implementation of the game of Tic Tac Toe.  The user is  'X'  and the computer is  '0'.  Each time you make a move in the game you will hear a sound.  Be patient the first time that you play this game as it may take time for the sound files to be downloaded to your computer.   

The Java program for Tic Tac Toe comes bundled with the Java Development Kit from Sun Microsystems.

 
 
 
Animated Cursor   
If you move the mouse inside the bounded area shown here the animated coffee cup will follow it.  (You don't need to drag the mouse, just roll it).  
Mouse-Clicking will fix the position of the cup and suspend the animation.   
The Java program for this animation can be found in "Java Programming for the Internet" by Thomas, Patel, Hudson and Ball (Ventana, 1996)
 
 
 
Revolving Earth 
The earth will revolve very slowly at first, until all 36 images in the sequence are fully downloaded.  You can pause or resume the revolution by mouse-clicking on the image. 
The program used to rotate the earth is the same as the one that I wrote for my 3D rotating logo, but I modified it to use the earth images instead of the logo. 
The images used in the animation  were supplied with "Java Programming Explorer" by Bartlett, Leslie and Simkin (Coriolis, 1996).
