JavaFX programming (Not Javascript)

Using the code from BallPane.java and BounceBallControl.java

create a "Pong for One" game -

a rectangular paddle moves back and forth via mouse drag along the bottom of the pane;

the bottom of the paddle should be about 1/2 the diameter of the ball off the bottom.

If the ball connects with the paddle, then it bounces at a 90 degree angle back into the pane space.

If the ball misses the paddle, then the score is decremented by 1.

The game ends when 20 points are lost.

Nice things:

A label that displays the score (you can start at 20 and go to zero if you want...)

For every 10 paddle connections in a row, the ball moves faster

For every 10 paddle connections in a row, the ball changes color

For every (2?) paddle misses in a row, the paddle grows in length

There is MATH involved in figuring out the connection between the paddle and the ball.

You probably want to pay a lot of attention to how moveBall() works.
