//Creating an empty movieclip to attach the clip from library  
\_root.spring\_mc.rain\_mc.createEmptyMovieClip(“hold er”,this.getNextHighestDepth(0));  
//settig variables  
holder.maxdrops=100;//no of drops  
var downspeed=60;//speed of the drops  
var dropslop=10;//slop of the drops  
//Part 1 attaching the clips with loop  
for(i=0;i\<holder.maxdrops;i++){  
holder.attachMovie(“circleclip”,“drop”+i,i+5);  
focuseddrop=holder[“drop”+i]  
focuseddrop.cacheAsBitmap=true;  
focuseddrop.\_x=random(Stage.width);  
focuseddrop.\_y=random(Stage.height);  
focuseddrop.\_yscale=random(100);  
focuseddrop.\_rotation=-dropslop;  
}

//part 2 setting an interval for motion of drops  
var dropup=setInterval(movedrop,1)  
//function to repeat in the interval  
function movedrop(){  
for(i=0;i\<holder.maxdrops;i++){  
focuseddrop=holder[“drop”+i]  
focuseddrop.\_rotation=-dropslop;  
focuseddrop.\_y+=25+downspeed/focuseddrop.\_yscale;  
focuseddrop.x+=Math.tan(dropslop);  
if(focuseddrop.\_y\>=Stage.height+20){  
focuseddrop.\_y=random(30);  
focuseddrop.\_x=random(Stage.width);  
}  
}  
}

stop();
