2 It must be overwritten by any dynamic applets that need to update display.
3 import java.awt.*; // imports all classes in java.awt package -- this applet needs Graphics, Font, Color which could be listed separately
4 public class HelloWorld extends java.applet.Applet {
5 Font f = new Font("TimesRoman",Font.BOLD,36);
6 public void paint(Graphics g) {
7 g.setFont(f);
