DDA Java

This document describes a Java applet that implements the Digital Differential Analyzer (DDA) algorithm for drawing lines. It allows the user to drag the mouse to create a "rubber band" line and then animates the drawing of that line using the DDA algorithm. Key points: - It uses mouse listeners to track mouse drag events and set the start/end points of the rubber band line. - When the mouse is released, it calls the DDA algorithm on a separate thread to animate the line drawing. - The DDA algorithm calculates the slope and y-intercept of the line, then uses a for loop to increment x and calculate the corresponding y values to draw each pixel of
