	Pistons Game
		The piston is an important component of a piston engine and of hydraulic and pneumatic systems.
		As the piston moves inside the cylinder, it transforms the energy from the expansion of a burning gas (usually a mixture of petrol or diesel and air) into mechanical power (in the form of a reciprocating linear motion).
		In most steam engines, the pistons are ''double acting'': steam is alternately admitted to either end of the cylinder, so that every piston stroke produces power.
