Hi all
I have problem with the below program.I want to move a ball randomly within a rectangle.Though this is an applet i have problems executing it.Can anyone help me in this regard.
The program follows as below
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

* An object of type MovingBall holds data about a "ball" that has
* a color, radius, position, speed, and direction. The ball is restricted
* to moving around inside a rectangle in the xy-plane. The ball can draw
* itself in a graphics context and will move when it is told to move.
* This class uses some trigonometry and vector math in its implementation.
