Re: 3d boolean in processing? Reply #1 - Nov 8th, 2006, 6:45pm   is there a third dimension to "true" and "false"? Boolean is exactly that.. a variable where you can store the value true, or false.. usage is i.e. for a checkbox' selected state. Code: boolean selected = false; // make a boolean variable void draw(){ background(255); // set background to white fill(0); // set fill color to black if(selected){ // if selected is true, fill with red fill(255,0,0); } rect(0,0,width/2,height/2); // draw rectangle } void mousePressed() { selected = !selected; // invert value }

I'm bored, therefore I program http://seltar.org  > seltar's special place http://snippet.seltar.org > seltar's snippet palace http://libraries.seltar.org > seltar's libraries

And no Processing hasn't got this built in, but one could write a library for that. The maths can be quite involved though...
