The personApplet

/* 
   An applet that demonstrates the use of methods.
   
   We will write a method, called drawPerson, that given the x and y
   coordinates of an anchor point, and a height in pixels, it draws
   a stick figure anchored at that point.
   
   The x and y coordinates specify the anchor point as the point between
   the legs at the bottom.
