point()
The `point()` function is used to draw a point on the canvas at a specified location, defined by its x and y coordinates. Creative coders utilize this function to create visual elements, such as particles or stars, that can serve as building blocks for more complex visuals. For example, in an interactive fireworks display, each explosion can be represented by multiple points that scatter and fade out, contributing to a dynamic and engaging experience.
Try It with AI
The best way to learn point() is to experiment with it using the AI assistant in p5js.ai.
Example prompts to try:
- "Explain what point() does in p5.js"
- "Create a simple example using point()"
- "Show me creative ways to use point()"
