In a classic Rubik’s cube, each six faces is covered by nine stickers,each one of six colours

(white, red ,blue, pink, green, yellow). There are total 18 possible moves in particular

state of cube.

Software requirement

·         Microssft visual studio 2008

·         Opengl library

·         GLUT library function

Input

·         (x , y , z)(1 , 2, 3) – selecting and rotating blocks in particular axis

·         Up-arrow and right-arrow key – seeing the current state of different faces.

Implementation

User defined point data structure for element square.

Important Variables	Description
Point ax array	ax holds all the co-ordinate points for element square along x axis.
Point ay array	ay holds all the co-ordinate points for element square along y axis.
Point az array	az holds all the co-ordinate points for element square along z axis.
Char commandline[5]	Holds the value of keys that are pressed.
Int selected_ax, selected_ay, selected_az	Holds the index of selected of selected element square.

Writing your own TWO-PLAYER CHESS GAME -

TWO PLAYER CHESS GAME

Introduction

·         Basic graphics user interface implemented with 2D shapes and graphics.

·         Almost similar to chess game present in windows.

·         When a chess piece is clicked all possible moves of former is highlighted with blue squares.

·         Have the feature of pawn promotion.

Language Used

JAVA

Implementation

User defined classes

·         public class chess_2p

·         public class kchess

public class chess_2p
Important Methods	Description
public static void main(String[] args)	Starting point of the program.Ensures data in program are initialized only once.
private static void createAndShowGUI()	Creates new Jframe and embeds an instance of kchess in it. Kchess class defines the complete game.

class kchess extends JPanel
Important variables	Description
int x[]=new int[120]	Keeps the x-coordinate for all the squares in the window.
int y[]=new int[120]	Keeps the y-coordinate for all the squares in the window.
int mousex	Holds the x-coordinate of the place where the mouse is clicked.
int mousey	Holds the y-coordinate of the place where the mouse is clicked.

int flag[]=new int[120]	Index represents the position and values inside it represent wether chess piece is present or not. 1 to 16-red chess pieces 48-63-white chess pieces 0-represent no chess pieces
int f[]=new int[40]	Holds all possible moves if chess piece is clicked.
User defined methods
Important Methods	Description
Kchess() constructer	Calls dinit() function. Sets the background and foegroung color. Adds mouselistner adapter.
private void dinit()	Initializes array x and y.
private int get_pos(int x,int y)	Returns the number which is the position of Square clicked.
private void set1(Graphics g)	Draws all the red chess pieces.
private void set2(Graphics g)	Draws all the white chess pieces.
private void clear_f()	Clears the f array. Sets the value to 999.
private boolean comp_r(int k)	Returns true if  square is in the possible moves of the selectd chess piece.
private void intro(Graphics g)	Draws the descriptive representation of chess pieces on left side of the window.
private void draw_knight(Graphics g,int k)	Draws knight at kth position square.
private void draw_pawn(Graphics g,int k)	Draws pawn at kth position square.
private void draw_king(Graphics g,int k)	Draws king at kth position square.
private void draw_queen(Graphics g,int k)	Draws queen at kth position square.
private void draw_rook(Graphics g,int k)	Draws rook at kth position square.
private void draw_bishop(Graphics g,int k)	Draws rook at kth position square.
private void set_property(Graphics g,int k)	If chess piece is present at the kth square then it changes the color of all possible moves of the chess piece to blue. The possible moves are identified by values present in array f.
private void set_pawn(int k)	Sets the value of array f according to all possible moves of selected white pawn.
private void set_rook(int k)	Sets the value of array f according to all possible moves of selected white rook.
