// The statements in the setup() function 
// execute once when the program begins
void setup() 
{
  size(200, 200);  // Size should be the first statement
  stroke(255);     // Set line drawing color to white
  noLoop();
}

// The statements in draw() are executed until the 
// program is stopped. Each statement is executed in 
// sequence and after the last line is read, the first 
// line is executed again.
