Thread: drawLine loop

My professor is asking this:
c. (10 points) Instead of using *s, use line segments for the plot. You must use a loop, not just draw the lines using separate drawLine() calls. No asterisks will be displayed. To draw a line, you need two points. You will have to remember the the first point's place in order to draw the line between the first and second point. Then you have to draw a line from the second to the third point.

This is sort of a fence post problem. Set up the first point with coordinates oldX and oldY before the loop. In the loop generate newX and newY for the second point. Draw the line. Give oldX and oldY the values of newX and newY. Continue looping.

import java.awt.Graphics;
 
 
public class BounceLine {
 
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        DrawingPanel ball = new DrawingPanel (300,500);
        Graphics g = ball.getGraphics();
 
        int x1= 10;
        int y1=25;
        for (int i=2; i<=20; i++){
            int x2=(i*10);
            int y2=425*(i*25+50);
            g.drawLine(x1,y1,x2,y2);
            x1=x2;
            y1=y2;
        }
    }
}

This is what I have
I can't get it to work. Help!!

When I run the program, only the first line is printed. I have to create lines that look like this

But I can't get the lines to print where the last coordinate is and create a new line.

This is the output I'm getting:
