You are my hero. You're teaching me the stuff I need to know for my SENG 100 class that my professor won't explain to us.

I couldn't thank you enough, Daniel, for all this content. You're a great teacher and seem like a great guy in general and for guys like me who can't read this is priceless material. You classes are not boring, accessible yet complete and it's blowing my mind that one can access all that, for free. Tip of the hat to you, sir.

I realize this video is four years old but you just saved my life, thank you so much for this tutorial!!!

I'm really blown away by the power that processing offers, to the ones initiated in it.

As allways, great class. I'm following your processing and, more generally, your programation course and they are amazing.
You are a great teacher

Great job! Thanks for these awesome videos. I have been learning Processing for a year. These videos made it a lot easier.

I hate my school, i hate studying computer science, i hate processing but you've made it a little bit bearable. Thanks:)

Thank you so much to upload these great Tutorials!!!

Hi Daniel! Before anything thanks again for your videos! You're really an excellent teacher. After watching all previous ones I feel like offering you a couple of beers :) The reason why I ended up here is because of Arduino, at the beginning I just wanted to plot some graphs.. but actually your lessons are an amazing complement, like your video about class and objects. I was wondering if you have any video about Arduino&Processing and how they can comunicate. It would be awesome and it will bring many Arduino fans to Processing world. Thanks again for all your time and efforts!!

What the best way in teaching myself when reading the reference on the website. I find my self jumping from one syntax to another but not accurately understanding and implementing the code correctly. Of course since you already learned it it is easier to learn it hands on. How can i understand the written content rather than asking other people what does it mean everytime? Please and thank you

where is processing used? this is programming language? thought it was a verb (edit) oddly enough, posting my reply returned error: "n is undefined" What The?!

[petaca]

very good explanation, a query is possible to achieve the rotation of the text for example on axis y, and if possible as would be done

[jiashizhao]

Hi! I'm wondering where I can find the examples you gave in the video. That'll be really helpful to me. Thanks thanks.

Hi .Daniel . thanks for all processing video lessons.
I have one ask for you .
how can we create textBox with processing?
can you take a video for this.

Hi Daniel. First I want to congratulate you for your classes. They very instructive and clear, and your long length videos worth to watch because you're always doing relevant explanations and digging deep into the knowledge. Thank you a lot for this! So, my question is: I'm using Processing 3.1.2 and some libraries aren't availiable is that correct (the UnfoldingMaps library for example)? Can I use it somehow? Another problem is that i'm not getting the desired results by using Strings. My Processing is not displaying the characters. I've wrote exactly your code but I only see a black screen as result and when I'm executing the following command line: println(PFont.list()); I'm getting this error message ( Type String[ ] of the last argument to method println(Object...) doesn't exactly match the vararg parameter type. Etc...). Thank you so much! I hope you can help me.

Daniel, hello, Is there a way to use an image as a texture for text? Thank you

[pg.n]

thanks so much..what would I need to do to limit the amount of text that can be put in a text box? Please help
