It will enable the first bitmap mode available (in order to have better resolution) by using the ''BITMAP ENABLE'' command. Then, it will clear the screen with the black color. Finally, it will run an endless loop (''DO...LOOP'') that will draw random points on the screen. ==== SOURCE CODE ==== BITMAP ENABLE(16) CLS BLACK DO x = RND(SCREEN WIDTH-1) y = RND(SCREEN HEIGHT-1) SELECT CASE RND(SCREEN COLORS-1) CASE 0 c = WHITE CASE 1 c = RED CASE 2 c = BLUE CASE 3 c = GREEN CASE ELSE c = YELLOW ENDSELECT PLOT x, y, c LOOP ==== SOURCE FILE ==== * ''[[https://github.com/spotlessmind1975/ugbasic/tree/main/examples/graphics_plot_01.bas|graphics_plot_01.bas]]'' ==== HOW TO COMPILE AND RUN ==== The instructions here refer to compiling the example from the command line.
