Math is one of my weak subjects since high school, that is my excuse for not being sharp when it comes to coding. I settled on creating a short animation for week 2, and since the “if” function is the only one I know of C sharp, I used only the “if” function. As a result, I animated based on the simple technique of one if statement per frame, which resulted in numerous lengthy strings as huge blocks of text as shown below. The “if” statements are triggered by a single variable Time, which is set to increase at a specified rate endlessly from the start. There are definitely other functions that could execute the same thing more concisely and efficiently, but only with the knowledge of “if” functions, I’m glad I got the animation to work with lots of Copy Pasta.

 

I also thought a text-only animation was a little dull. That’s when I thought of text art, otherwise known as ASCII art. I watch Twitch streams frequently so I thought of using Pepe the Frog, which fits with the random text I inputted. I was glad many classmates recognized the meme and shared the reference, while others simply enjoyed the animation.

  1. I am surprised to learned you only used if statements that’s awesome! I think you did great with the timing of the animation. How the in the beginning the typing animation starts are slow and slowly speeds up as if someone is typing. Did you just randomly pick numbers for the time point?
