/* declare a variable to  store the value of color*/ let backgroundColor;   function setup() {     /* initialise the variable      with RGB color format*/     backgroundColor = color(0, 50, 150); }   function draw() {     // Create Canvas of a given size       createCanvas(500, 500);       // Use of setRed function     backgroundColor.setRed(       0 + 128 * cos(millis() / 1000));       /* Pass the initialized       variable to background function*/     background(backgroundColor);       // Set text size     textSize(30);       // Set text color     fill( "white" );       // set text     text( "GeeksForGeeks" , 125, 125);   } |
Output:
Example-2: This example uses setRed() function to set red value of RGB color format.
/* declare a variable to store the value of color*/ let backgroundColor;   function setup() {     /* initialise the variable     with RGB color format*/     backgroundColor = color(0, 0, 0); }   function draw() {     // Create Canvas of a given size       createCanvas(540, 500);       /* Use of setRed function     and initialise it to maximum*/     backgroundColor.setRed(255);       /* Pass the initialised     variable to background function*/     background(backgroundColor);       // Set text size     textSize(30);       // Set text color     fill( "white" );       // set text     text( "GeeksForGeeks\n " , 135, 125);     text(       "A Computer Science Portal For Geeks" ,       10, 155);   } |
