Chapter 1 INTRODUCTION

 Introduction of project -:
  Ping-Pong, ball game similar in principle to lawn tennis and played on a flat table divided
into two equal courts by a net fixed across its width at the middle. Learning a new sport
requires many things from a person: reading the rulebook, purchasing the necessary
equipment, and possibly trying the game out with another person. Many times, an individual
who is observing them or playing with them acts as their coach; they usually have many times
more experience than them and can give them the guidance needed to improve the sport.
However, the player might not have another person to play the game with, much less one that
can act in a coaching capacity. In this situation, software has turned into a democratization
force (Friedman, 2012); people who have not had access to resources before now have access
to software that can perform the job for them ("Democratization of Technology," 2013)

 Existing System and Need for System - :

1. Java development environment: You would need a Java development environment

installed on your computer, such as Eclipse or IntelliJ IDEA.
2. JavaFX library: JavaFX is a library that provides a set of graphical user interface (GUI)
components for building rich, cross-platform desktop applications in Java. You would
need to download and install JavaFX on your computer.
3. Game loop: A game loop is a loop that runs continuously while the game is playing,
updating the game state and rendering the game world to the screen. You would
 need to implement a game loop in Java using techniques such as threading or
JavaFX's AnimationTimer class.
4. Graphics: You would need graphics for the ball, paddles, and background. You could
create the graphics yourself using a graphics editor like Photoshop or GIMP, or you
could use pre-made graphics from websites like OpenGameArt.
5. Sound effects and music: You would need sound effects for the ball hitting the
paddle and the paddle hitting the ball, as well as music for the background. You
could create the sound effects and music yourself or use pre-made ones from
websites like OpenGameArt.
6. Input devices: You would need input devices for the game, such as a keyboard or
gamepad, to control the paddles.
7. Physics engine: You would need a physics engine to calculate the movement of the
ball and the paddles. You could use a library like JBox2D, which is a Java port of the
popular physics engine Box2D.
8. Artificial intelligence: If you want to create a single-player mode, you would need to
implement artificial intelligence to control the opponent's paddle.

Overall, creating a ping pong game in Java would require a solid understanding of
Java programming concepts, game development principles, and JavaFX library.

Scope of Work -:
The Table may be the main equipment required for playing ping-pong, but that is not the only thing
required. Players need a racquet or paddle and a ping-pong ball as well to go with the game.
