Warmup:
- The following code is supposed to wrap the player in Robot.
from gasp import *
begin_graphics(800, 600, title="Catch", background=color.YELLOW)
ball_x=-10
ball_y = 300
ball = Circle((ball_x, ball_y), 10, filled=True)
set_speed(120)
while True:
if ball_x<=0: # REPLACE WITH COMMENT ON WHAT THIS & THE NEXT LINE DO
ball_x=800
elif ball_x>=800: # REPLACE WITH COMMENT ON WHAT THIS & THE NEXT LINE DO
ball_x=0
move_to(ball,( ball_x,ball_y))
update_when('next_tick')
end_graphics()
- Copy and paste this code, and save it as a new program, and test it
- Next, replace the comments
- Finally, write answers to the following questions, then discuss them with your partner:
- What behavior do you see?
- Why do you think this is happening (what's your hypothesis)?
- How could you test your hypothesis? (think of two different methods)
- How can you fix the code? (again, there are at least two methods)
Agenda:
- Debugging short exercise
- Review Robot game requirements and grading rubric. See Media:Robot_game.ppt
- Continue work on Robot: due Thursday (2/10/11)
Monday (1/31/11) - Tuesday (2/1/11)
Warmup:
- Write a program that prompts the user for x and y coordinates between 0 and 200. Compare their input to a point at (75, 100). Tell the user if they are left or right of that point, and by how much. Likewise, tell them if they are below or above that point , and by how much.
Agenda:
- Media:Robot_game.ppt
- Complete Robot hand out
- Work on Robot game, even if you haven't finished Pong yet.
Monday - Tuesday (1/24/11 - 1/25/11)
Agenda:
- Continue working on Pong - aim to be finished this week.
- Work on Robot game. Use the 8.8 version of Catch!
- Once you have finished the core of the Robot assignment, complete the extension work.
Thursday - Friday (1/13/11 - 1/21/11)
Agenda:
- Begin working on Pong. Use the 8.10 version of Catch!
- If you complete Pong, then go onto the Robot game. Use the 8.8 version of Catch!
- NVCC Dual Enrollment
Tuesday - Wednesday (1/11/11 - 1/12/11)
Warmup:
- Without using the computer, what does the following code display?
from gasp import *
begin_graphics(width=800, height=600, title="Question 23")
x = 0
while x < 100:
Circle( (400, 300), x )
Line( (x, 0), (400, 300) )
x = x + 10
update_when('key_pressed')
end_graphics()
