The classes Graphics and Graphics2D include many methods for drawing figures and text.

Once you have obtained an instance of Graphics2D you can call various methods.

These methods render figures:

• drawLine
• drawRect
• fillOval

These methods do not render immediately but they do alter the behaviour of subsequent actions:

• rotate
• scale
• setColor
• setLine
• setRenderingHints
• setStroke
• translate
