Answer:

The radius of a circle drawn with

CIRCLE  (320, 240), 50

is 50. (So the diameter— the distance across the circle—is 100.)

Calculations with Graphics

You can do arithmetic with the numbers used with graphics commands. Here is the program that draws a circle in the center of the screen again; this time we let the computer calculate the center:

' Draw a circle at the center of the screen
SCREEN 12
COLOR 7
CIRCLE  (640 / 2, 480 / 2), 50
END

The arithmetic is done first before the CIRCLE statement draws the circle, so the circle will be drawn at (320, 240).

QUESTION 18:

Modify the above program so that it draws a circle that has TWICE the radius of the original.
