Sp02 Final Exam Review: Multimedia Programming in Squeak

Is this one too hard? Mark Guzdial


1.
myPen := Pen new.
myNotes := #(((c4 1.0 500)) ((d2 2.0 500)) ((e3 1.0 500)) ((f4 1.0 500))).
myPen down.
1 to: 4 do:[:i|
myPen go:50.
myPen turn: 90.
(AbstractSound noteSequenceOn: (FMSound soundNamed: 'clarinet')
from: (myNotes at: i) ) play.
].

Question: Why do I need double parenthesis around the notes when I declare it on the second line? It would not compile if I just put one around them.
Think about what a note sequence is and what you're passing in. Mark Guzdial

2. No Idea!

On (b), think about EllipseMorph new openInWorld, position:, bounds:, bounds, extent, and top:/left: messages. Mark Guzdial

I believe this is because you are qualifying the object with the inner most parens and then qualifying that this object is an element in a collection with the second set of parens. i.e. when defining a Point instance you define (x@y) not x@y, then you have to qualify that object as an instance in the collection so it would be ((x@y)) unlike in the extent example where you're passing to a message so all you need is a Point not a Collection. Is this correct??? Anyone?

    SoundPlayer waitUntilDonePlaying: sound.

While we're at it, why not write an application that makes the Squeak mouse's eyes move to the beat?

Does it work without all those World doOneCycle's? Mark Guzdial
