public class GameTable
extends Panel
implements GameUpdate
This panel serves as a location for placement of block numbers. It lays out everything in a grid, where the number of rows can be specified but not the number of columns. It can also handle gameUpdate events which allows it to clear itself and repaint on demand. There is one option for mouse event handling. If mouse event handling is enabled, the panel will remove the number that is selected and fire a numberChosen event.
