Macros for ImageJ 1.5h17 Java 1.8 to draw stars.

The original reason for writing this macro was to compare a Star of David made with two overlapping equilateral triangles with a six pointed yellow star seen on the shirt of a person in a movie with slightly more acute points on the star (scroll down to bottom for more...).

The first version draw rasters stars_6_points_drawline_fill_method.ijm and the second version switched to drawing a polygon 06_points_polygon_drawing_method.ijm.

Macro to iterate through three to 13 pointed stars. stars_polygon_method_stack.ijm

3 points and up stars_polygon_ method_single_stack.ijm

A note about the if statement to alternate outside vertex and interior vertex:
This line of code
  if ((vertex % 2) == 0)	
may be replaced with	
  if (vertex % 2)
as 0 and 1 are interpreted as false and true.		

And just for a little fun. stars_random.ijm

The question about the stars arose when I saw this movie and wondered if the star was supposed to be made of two overlapping triangles or not.
