C# .NET - how to make a wheel of fortune type wheel in c#

i need to make a spinning wheel for my project in my object-oriented programming class

for this in a windows forms application.  WPF would be easier but it doesn't sound like you guys are that advanced yet.

You'd use the graphic object of say a PictureBox control and use GDI+ to draw on it.  Getting code drawing a pie charter is probably the easiest place to start:

Here is some additional code for drawing that might be useful.

You'd set up a timer that redraws the entire chart with a different color as the starting point every 50 milliseconds or so.  For your pointer, you hard code the boundries of where your selected pie slice should be.  When your timer stops, grab a pixel and see what color it is.

This might also come in handy:
