a whole afternoon of programming. my eyes are getting crossed, and my brain is going to suffer from an overload. well, i sort of got most of what i wanted. GUI, 2 push buttons to choose a sine or cosine graph, 1 plot area, 1 slider to determine the frequency. it's not bad for a start. but i wonder why i cannot seem to show the slider values. i mean, who's going to know what is the current value selected in the slider? i want it to show up in a text box, static or edit. but i can't seem to do it. i'll have to try again another time. i'm getting tired. i wonder how the honours project will be. i think i've chosen a project i like. it's interesting. and i know just what i need to do. so far. at least that's what it seems. good luck! posted by Yee 11:20 PM . . .
