Recursive question

Hi, I'm new to Processing, but am quickly learning and using it for a project. I wanted to know why this recursive function isn't working the way it should..upon clicking, the user should see white lines branching out 3 levels deep, similar to the tutorial on recursivity, but instead there is no branching taking place. http://research.calit2.net/solaris/tests/applet1/index.html Here is the tutorial I am working from. http://stage.itp.tsoa.nyu.edu/%7Edts204/ppaint/week7/index.html I'm trying to build a skeleton from which other things could be built upon. Any help would be appreciated.

You've got the recursion being called from within a for loop. You're sending the program back to the beginning of the function before the for loop is finished. The example you're working from doesn't use a for loop. It calls itself to get the repeating behaviour. I think it's the level you want to be random so when you first call the function in mouseReleased you might want to call the random there.
