I have been playing with some new software the past few days. It’s a package for authoring Flash™ animations. I made our Thanksgiving e-card using the tool. I discovered a spiral object in the auto shapes component list. After playing with it for a while, I managed to get this animated spiral effect. It doesn’t do anything but it was fun to play with the new software.

The script used for the animations is an object-oriented language. It’s a lot like Java or JavaScript but with objects specific to Flash™.
For the record, I have programmed in Ada, Algol, Assembly, Atlas, Basic, C/C++, Cobal, Fortran, Java, JavaScript, Pascal, Perl, Pic and Python. Only a small sample of the hundreds of languages out there.
