curves

Hi

I am a newbie at Processing and Im trying to animate curves that spread out along the width and height of the screen in different directions--can anyone give me any tips?

I have managed to animate a line to curve

///////////////////////
int x, xspd = 5;
void setup(){
 size(400, 400);
 frameRate(30);
}

void draw(){
 for(int a=4; a<=15; a++) {
background(255);
noFill();
beginShape();
curve (width/2,x,width/2 ,height/2,height/2,a,x,a);
endShape();

 x+=xspd;
}
}
/////////////////

but I cant figure out how to make it grow from a single point---any tips would be greatly appricated!

Thanks again :)

im not shure what you mean, but something like this?

float x, xspd = 0.1;
float x2 = 200;

void setup(){
 size(400, 400);
 frameRate(30);
}

void draw(){
 for(int a=20; a<=25; a++) {
smooth();
   background(255);
noFill();
beginShape();
curve (200+x*20,250,190,200,190,x2,200,250);
endShape();
x2 -= 0.1;
 x+=xspd;
}
}
