That was odd

Ok, true story. Several weeks ago, I lost my highschool planner. I never really needed it too much, so I didn't think much of it. Well, skip on over to today. I decided to leave my geometry class 5 minutes earlyer (I leave at 10-15 minutes earlyer normaly, to go and work in the lunch room), so I could get a new planner. I walked into the office and asked for a new one. While waiting for them, this guy offered me a piece of cake. It was being handed out, and it was fine, seeing the principal was standing right there. So I took it. So, basicly, I lost my planner and got some cake.

In game maker news, my friend wants me to help him with a graphing program. All fine by me, I could make one my self easly with all this geometry I'm learning, the only problem is that the Y is oposite that of geometry.

Um… I just fixed that. Simple and easy to fix.

Graphing program? Might I suggest:

And yeah, the Y axis in GM can give alot of trouble. Try drawing on a surface, and then flipping the surface when you draw it.

We simply subtracted from y instead of adding to. The center of the window for the program is (0,0), so we just made everything reletive to that, only we subtracted y. Simple as that. Surfaces would be over kill in this matter (WHAT??? Is that even posible???)
