But unfortunately, since I am new to d3, my understanding of using transitions and other dynamic components was inaccurate, and hence I was not able to use them as I had intended to. In the end, I had to content myself with just showing the final result and snapshot of the game, which is shown below: - -If you need a JavaScript/HTML/CSS refresher, see [Technology Fundamentals by Scott Murray](http://chimera.labs.oreilly.com/books/1230000000345/ch03.html#_html) and/or [JavaScript Codeacademy](https://www.codecademy.com/en/tracks/javascript). +![X and O_snapshot](XandO_snap.png) -If you need a Git/GitHub refreseher, see [GitHub Bootcamp](https://help.github.com/categories/bootcamp/), the [GitHub Guides](https://guides.github.com/) (especially the ones on Hello World, and Understanding the GitHub Flow, and Forking Projects), and [CodeSchool's Try Git Course](https://www.codeschool.com/courses/try-git). - -Requirements +gh-pages site link: - --- +https://umeshnair.github.io/01-ghd3/index.html -1. Your project should contain at least four kinds of graphics primitives (circles, rectangles, lines, polygons) in different colors. -2. Your document should identify the source of the code if you start with code that you found. -3. Your code should be forked from the GitHub repo and linked using GitHub pages. See the "GitHub Details" section below for detailed instructions on how to do this. - -GitHub Details ---- - -- Fork the GitHub Repository for Assignment 1. You now have a copy associated with your username. -- Make changes to index.html to fulfill the project requirements. -- Make sure your "master" branch matches your "gh-pages" branch. See the GitHub Guides referenced above if you need help. -- Edit the README.md with a link to your gh-pages site "http://YourUsernameGoesHere.github.io/01-ghd3/index.html". -- To submit, make a [Pull Request](https://help.github.com/articles/using-pull-requests/) on the original repository. - -Vis Details +Technical Achievements: - --- +1. Gained a good understanding of what are svg's and how to work with them. +2. Successfully drew different shapes like circles, rectangles with distinct dimensions and color fills. +3. Improved upon my initial understanding of using transitions and making visualizations dynamic. -For this project you should use d3.js. -You can learn from examples on the [d3.js](http://d3js.org) site or start from scratch. - -See the [Using d3js](https://github.com/mbostock/d3/wiki#using) documentation for how to run your own local server. - -Creative solutions are welcome! In the past I've seen recreations of paintings, interactives, and more. - -Go beyond the minimum requirements of this project. -Experiment with other aspects of the [d3 API](https://github.com/mbostock/d3/wiki/API-Reference) and [d3 Tutorials](https://github.com/mbostock/d3/wiki/Tutorials). -Try making the elements interactive, for example, or animate them. - -Grading +Design Achievements: - --- +1. Layout and placement of shapes and objects on the screen to generate an effective visualization. +2. Gained an understanding of colors and its combinations. +3. Gained an understanding of the use of different shapes and their size variations to clearly differentiate the objects. -Grades are on a 120 point scale. -96 points will be graded for functionality: the program does what the assignment requests with an informative README. - -We will use Google Chrome to view submissions. -Be sure to test your code there. - -Below are some, but not necessarily all, of the key points we will consider during grading: - -- Circles and Rectangles -- Lines -- Polygons -- Different colors -- README Quality - - A description of what you have created. 1-2 screenshots are recommended for the README. - - A working link to the hosted files (usually the gh-pages 'live' url) - - Section for Technical and Design Achievements - -Technical Achievement Desription -- 12 -Design Achievement Description -- 12 - -Remember, it is up to *you* to define what constitutes a technical and design achievements. -Be ambitious as these are designed to allow you to shape your learning. -These are the only way to move from B to A territory. - +References: +https://stackoverflow.com/questions/13204562/proper-format-for-drawing-polygon-data-in-d3 diff --git a/XandO_snap.png b/XandO_snap.png new file mode 100644 index 0000000..cb167a6 Binary files /dev/null and b/XandO_snap.png differ diff --git a/index.html b/index.html index 29f315c..082f565 100755 --- a/index.html +++ b/index.html @@ -1,10 +1,113 @@ - + + + + + + CS 573 Assignment 1 - X and O + + + + +
