Lecture 9 Assignment

Due at the start of class, Monday, February 22.

Please submit answers to these questions either as a hard copy (typeset or handwritten are OK) or by email to terescoj AT strose.edu by the start of class. Please use a clear subject line when submitting by email (e.g., CSC 112 Lecture 9 Assignment, Mary Smith). We will discuss these questions at the start of class, so no late submissions are accepted.

1. Create an Ambrosia definition for a lamp shade similar to the one on the lamp below by using a sweep. You need not run this in Python/Ambrosia or generate an image, but you may do so if you wish. You need only create the lamp shade, but you are welcome to develop the entire scene. (6 points)
