Name	rect()
Examples	rect(30, 20, 55, 55); rect(30, 20, 55, 55, 7); rect(30, 20, 55, 55, 3, 6, 12, 18);
Description	Draws a rectangle to the screen. A rectangle is a four-sided shape with every angle at ninety degrees. By default, the first two parameters set the location of the upper-left corner, the third sets the width, and the fourth sets the height. The way these parameters are interpreted, however, may be changed with the rectMode() function. To draw a rounded rectangle, add a fifth parameter, which is used as the radius value for all four corners. To use a different radius value for each corner, include eight parameters. When using eight parameters, the latter four set the radius of the arc at each corner separately, starting with the top-left corner and moving clockwise around the rectangle.
Syntax	rect(a, b, c, d) rect(a, b, c, d, r) rect(a, b, c, d, tl, tr, br, bl)
Parameters	a float: x-coordinate of the rectangle by default b float: y-coordinate of the rectangle by default c float: width of the rectangle by default d float: height of the rectangle by default r float: radii for all four corners tl float: radius for top-left corner tr float: radius for top-right corner br float: radius for bottom-right corner bl float: radius for bottom-left corner
Returns	void
