# This code shows a sampler of common Java Swing widget types. This is
# by no means all of the available widgets. For documentation and tutorials
# on the underlying Java classes, see http://java.sun.com/products/jfc/

#
# We'll be using swing a lot, so import it as "swing". Swing is built using
# an older Java GUI toolkit called awt, so we'll need it too. One of the
# examples here also uses the Java networking package (you're unlikely to
# need that for the project...)
#
import javax.swing as swing
import java.awt as awt
import java.net as net
import sys
#
# I've organized the sampler code into a single class, called SwingSampler.
# The __init__ function (called the "constructor") does all of the setup.
# Note that __init__, like all other functions in a class (called "methods")
# takes "self" as its first argument.
