Create an array to hold the confetti particles.\n2. Define a class to represent each confetti particle.\n3. Update the `draw` function to animate the confetti.\n\nLet's start by creating the confetti particle system:\n\n```javascript\nlet confetti = []; // Array to hold the confetti particles\n\nclass Confetti {\n constructor(x, y) {\n this.x = x;\n this.y = y;\n this.size = random(5, 10); // Random size for each confetti\n this.color = color(random(255), random(255), random(255)); // Random color\n this.speedX = random(-2, 2); // Horizontal speed\n this.speedY = random(-2, 2); // Vertical speed\n }\n\n move() {\n this.x += this.speedX;\n this.y += this.speedY;\n }\n\n display() {\n fill(this.color);\n noStroke();\n ellipse(this.x, this.y, this.size);\n }\n}\n```\n\n- This class, `Confetti`, represents each particle, with properties for position, size, color, and speed.\n- The `move` method updates the particle's position based on its speed.\n- The `display` method draws the particle as a colorful circle.\n\nNext, update your `draw` function to animate the confetti:\n\n```javascript\nfunction draw() {\n background(135, 206, 235); // Sky blue background\n textSize(64);\n fill(0); // Black color for text\n textAlign(CENTER, CENTER);\n text(\"HAPPY BIRTHDAY ERIC!\", width / 2, height / 2);\n\n // Add new confetti particles\n if (frameCount % 5 === 0) { // Adjust the frequency as needed\n confetti.push(new Confetti(width / 2, height / 2));\n }\n\n // Update and display each confetti particle\n for (let i = confetti.length - 1; i >= 0; i--) {\n confetti[i].move();\n confetti[i].display();\n\n // Remove confetti that goes off-screen\n if (confetti[i].x < 0 || confetti[i].x > width || confetti[i].y < 0 || confetti[i].y > height) {\n confetti.splice(i, 1);\n }\n }\n}\n```\n\n- This code adds new `Confetti` objects at the center of the canvas periodically.\n- It moves each confetti and displays it every frame.\n- Confetti that move off-screen are removed from the array.\n\nReplace your existing `draw` function with this new version and add the `Confetti` class.

Load the images in the `preload` function.\n2. Draw the images in the `draw` function to fill the background.\n\n### Step 1: Update the `preload` function\n\nWe will load all four images:\n\n```javascript\nlet confetti = [];\nlet img1, img2, img3, img4; // Variables to hold the images\n\nfunction preload() {\n img1 = loadImage(\"@asset('e1')\");\n img2 = loadImage(\"@asset('e2')\");\n img3 = loadImage(\"@asset('e3')\");\n img4 = loadImage(\"@asset('e4')\");\n}\n```\n\n### Step 2: Update the `draw` function to display the images\n\nNext, we'll modify the `draw` function to divide the canvas into four equal parts and display each image in its respective section:\n\n```javascript\nfunction draw() {\n // Draw the background images\n image(img1, 0, 0, width / 2, height / 2); // Top-left\n image(img2, width / 2, 0, width / 2, height / 2); // Top-right\n image(img3, 0, height / 2, width / 2, height / 2); // Bottom-left\n image(img4, width / 2, height / 2, width / 2, height / 2); // Bottom-right\n\n // Add new confetti particles from three points\n if (frameCount % 5 === 0) { // Adjust the frequency as needed\n let points = [\n { x: width / 2 - 50, y: height / 2 - 50 }, // Left point\n { x: width / 2 + 50, y: height / 2 - 50 }, // Right point\n { x: width / 2, y: height / 2 + 50 } // Below point\n ];\n let randomPoint = random(points); // Pick a random point from the array\n confetti.push(new Confetti(randomPoint.x, randomPoint.y));\n }\n\n // Update and display each confetti particle\n for (let i = confetti.length - 1; i >= 0; i--) {\n confetti[i].move();\n confetti[i].display();\n\n // Remove confetti that goes off-screen\n if (confetti[i].x < 0 || confetti[i].x > width || confetti[i].y < 0 || confetti[i].y > height) {\n confetti.splice(i, 1);\n }\n }\n\n // Draw the text on top of the confetti\n textSize(64);\n fill(0); // Black color for text\n textAlign(CENTER, CENTER);\n text(\"HAPPY BIRTHDAY ERIC!\", width / 2, height / 2);\n}\n```\n\n### Summary of Changes:\n- In the `preload` function, we load the four images into variables.\n- In the `draw` function, we display the images in a grid layout (two rows and two columns), so each image takes up one-fourth of the canvas.\n\nPlease replace the `preload` and `draw` functions in your `script.js` with the provided code.
