  • public void init() { . . . }
  • executed once when applet is downloaded to the browser.
  • public void start(){ . . . }
  • executed each time the browser window is entered.
  • public void paint(){ . . . }
  • executed whenever you want to draw in the window.
  • public void stop(){ . . . }
  • executed each time the browser window in exited.
  • public void destroy(){ . . . }
