I found this project to be very interesting in that for me it started out with me knowing exactly what I wanted to do, but having no idea how to do it. Through trial-and-error I found out how to change dimensions and colors randomly by using variables to make an interactive project. This project has taught me how to use variables effectively to make my projects more fun and interesting.
