Complexity-based Systems Project Update 03

Components

1. Timers that can use the delta time of the application, frame-rate independent
2. DuelingCalculator class/structure
• Seed
• Value
• Deterministic algorithm that can take the previous random value as input
• Mapping for value into color
3. Grid structure based on desired box pixel width, dynamic scalable to display dimensions
4. Touch interface (with Mouse compatibility for testing) that is grid-aware

After looking at both Processing and OpenFrameworks, I've decided to go with Processing for this piece.
Though I have more of this code already written in C++, 

My brief survey of both languages seems to suggest that

• The workflow in Processing will be faster (for me) as the project will neither be memory intensive or complicated in design
• Processing has a well-vetted, long supported, straightforward library for Touch/Mouse interfacing called SMT
• Porting my code from C++ to Java will be relatively quick

While I prefer openFrameworks, there's a lot of extra plumbing there I haven't figured out, and to date, the ratio of projects I've done in Processing to oF is still 3:1. I don't have much time, to finish, so that's as good a reason as any for a presentable prototype

Progress

Ported my ofxDeltaTimer utility from C++ to Java

Set up "Dueling Calculator" system to generate sample values
