A better way to draw in java then using x/y coordinates?
I'm new to Java. 
I have an assignment to make a drawing using drawLine, Polygon, etc. 

Using x/y coordinates is unintuitive and slow, so I am asking if there is a way to draw the lines first somehow, and then convert them into x/y coordinates?

Thanks.
