Can anyone direct me in the direction where to start the code for the randomized of the ball to start.
from Tkinter import * window = Tk() canvas = Canvas(window, width=500, height=500, background="green") canvas.pack() def mouse_paddle_move(event): mouseY = event.y current_coords = canvas.coords("paddle") x1 = current_coords[0] y1 = current_coords[1] x2 = current_coords[2] y2 = current_coords[3] height = (y2 - y1) canvas.coords("paddle", x1, mouseY - (height/2), x2, mouseY + (height/2)) def move_ball(speed_x, speed_y, score): box = canvas.bbox("ball") x1 = box[0] y1 = box[1] x2 = box[2] y2 = box[3] if x2 >= 500: canvas.create_text(250, 250, text="Game Over!") return box = canvas.bbox("paddle") px1 = box[0] py1 = box[1] px2 = box[2] py2 = box[3] if x2 > px1 and y2 > py1 and y1 < py2: speed_x = -1.2 * (abs(speed_x)) speed_y = 1.2 * speed_y score = score + 1 canvas.itemconfig("score_text", text="Score: " + str(score)) if x1 <= 0: speed_x = -1 * speed_x if y2 >= 500 or y1 <= 0: speed_y = -1 * speed_y canvas.move("ball", speed_x, speed_y) canvas.after(30, move_ball, speed_x, speed_y, score) canvas.create_oval(225, 225, 275, 275, fill="blue", tags="ball") canvas.create_rectangle(450, 200, 455, 300, fill="red", tags="paddle") canvas.create_text(250, 10, tags = "score_text", text="Score: 0") move_ball(-10, 7, 0) canvas.bind('<Motion>', mouse_paddle_move) mainloop() -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
