Hi @alb85,

Not sure if this is what you are looking for,

This case implements an interface and a class is then defined and used. To create a new instance of a class Test, call Test_name = new Test();


interface Dot {
  void move();
  void display();
}

class CircleDot implements Dot {
  float x = 50;
  float y = 50;

  void move() {
    x = x + random(-1, 1);
  }

  void display() {
    ellipse(x, y, 16, 16);
  }
}

class SquareDot implements Dot {
  float x = 50;
  float y = 50;


  void move() {
    y = y + random(-1, 1);
  }

  void display() {
    rect(x, y, 16, 16);
  }
}


SquareDot sq;
void setup() {
  size(100, 100);
  sq = new SquareDot();
}

void draw() {
  
  sq.move();
  sq.display();
}
