Hello (I’m back with level 3 again, I’m really, really sorry). I’ve read the other discussions on this topic, but I haven’t found a way to change the perception of my problem.
The exercise appears to be completed, but I’m not satisfied because the ball doesn’t bounce randomly in all directions… It maintains a sort of similar trajectory.
I’m not really having any difficulty changing the color. However, I don’t really understand how to use the new “random” function.
Below is my code. I think I need to add to my if statements that, as soon as the ball touches an edge, it’s the X AND Y positions that change, and not one or the other. But I can’t figure out how to code this to achieve this result. If I widen the “min” and “max” (which I tried), the ball appears and disappears in various places but doesn’t really bounce…
Could you please point me in the right direction?
