Following applet illustrates two ways to use dynamic colors. [br][list][*]The colors of the sign of a function f and the color of a Point P depent on a [b]given condition[/b].[br][/*][*]The colors of a slider s and a point C are calculated out of a[b] variable value[/b].[br][br][/*][*][b]sign of a function[/b]: The sign of a function [code]f(x)= ax + b[/code] depends from the values of a and b.[/*][*][b]color of a point P[/b]: Point P colors green when it's on the graph of f and red if it's not.[/*][*][b]color of a slider[/b]: The color of slider s changes while moving the slider.[/*][*][b]color of a point C[/b]: The color of point P changes if you drag it along the segment l.[/*][/list]
