CLS
DOT 635,475
BOX 10,10,630,20
CIRCLE 230,240,100
ELLIPSE 230,240,100,200
LINE 120,240,520,240

I typed down the code as stated in tutorial four. "ARTISTIC VARIABLES" like creating shapes.I put the code in as stated in the above, and its telling me PARAMETER MISMATCH, BOX EXPECTS INTEGER, INTEGER, INTEGER.

Now I'm not sure if I'm doing it right, or is there anything I'm leaving out. Any suggestions as to get those code to work?

Because you have parenthesis around all your function calls. Box takes 4 parameters but you have 5 numbers. Circle3 is not a command, remove the number 3. You need a comma between your two RGB calls in the INK command.

Ok, i changed the code around to make it look like the above code. But now I'm having a problem with the DOT (635,475) it's saying syntax error, unrecognized parameter. What do i need to do to change this?

The code has been corrected and it works. Here is the end product



thank you for the help

In Dark BASIC you only need parentheses for functions/commands that return a value. I.E. RGB needs parentheses because it takes the three colour parameters and converts them to a single number which is what DB actually uses for colours, BOX does not return any value so doesn't need parentheses. It's strange lol.
