Half of a rectangle.

OK look here is my problem:
I'm working on a school program.
There is a rolling ball and a rectangle.
(height of the applet = 400 , width =400)

First, I think you just posted this.
Second, you might want to post this in a language-specific forum next time, probably java? Can a mod move this there?
Third, aren't you supposed to be doing homework with your brain, a book, a compiler, and an API? We don't really like homework questions here. We can prod you in the right direction if we see that you have put some effort into this. What do you have so far?

i got this

I'm pretty far already but i just keep getting the same error.
It's a boolean probleme:
the boolean always changes to 'heenschuin = true' i really don't get it

.

btw the language is java (applets....)
this is my code

Code:

import java.awt.*;
import java.applet.*;
import java.awt.event.*;
import java.awt.Event.*;
public class col extends Applet implements Runnable
{
    Image Buffer;
    Graphics gBuffer;
    int x, y;
    boolean mouseInside, collide, onderdeel1;
    boolean heen, terug;
    boolean heenschuin, terugschuin;
    Rectangle r1, r2;
    Rectangle bots1,bots2; 

    public void init()
    {
        Buffer=createImage(size().width,size().height);
        gBuffer=Buffer.getGraphics();
        r1=new Rectangle(110,115,10,10);
        r2=new Rectangle(0,0,25,50);
        bots1=new Rectangle(0,0,25,25);
        heen = true;
	terug = false;
        heenschuin = false;
	terugschuin = false;
        onderdeel1 = false;

    }

    public void drawStuff()
    {
        gBuffer.setColor(Color.black);

        gBuffer.fillRect(0,0,size().width,size().height);

        gBuffer.setColor(Color.red);
        gBuffer.fillOval(r1.x, r1.y, r1.width, r1.height);

        gBuffer.setColor(Color.blue);

        gBuffer.fillRect(r2.x, r2.y, r2.width, r2.height);
        gBuffer.setColor(Color.yellow);
        gBuffer.fillRect(r2.x, r2.y, bots1.width, bots1.height);
        gBuffer.setColor(Color.black);

    }
