Sine Cosine.
Sine Cosine.
Linear movement with sin() and cos(). Numbers between 0 and PI*2 (TWO_PI which angles roughly 6.28) are put into these functions and numbers between -1 and 1 are returned. These values are then scaled to produce larger movements.

Functions Used
rectMode()
Modifies the location from which rectangles are drawn by changing the way in which parameters given to rect() are intepreted

draw()
Called directly after setup(), the draw() function continuously executes the lines of code contained inside its block until the program is stopped or noLoop() is called

background()
The background() function sets the color used for the background of the Processing window
