REALLY basic functions problem

Remark 1

why did you comment this out:
//MIN = getArrayMin();

won’t work (I understand why, to test the if-clause)

Remark 2

That’s a duplicate: textSize(width/4);

Remark 3

This works:

 if (MIN>60) {
    fill(0);
  } else {
    fill(255);
  }

BUT it must be directly before the ellipse command because at the moment, there is another fill command after this if-clause which overwrites the last fill value…

  • Rule of thumb: Always do fill and stroke in draw() not in setup() and before using the ellipse or rect or text command that has to get this color.

Remark 4

The textSize for numbers MIN with 3 digits is another issue than the fill color.

Remark 5

Remember to hit ctrl-t in processing for auto-format of your code (indents…).
