[Tutor] need help

[jonathan wallis]

i am in the process of creating a simple python program, and i have come
across a problem which i can not solve, here is the code


*import pygame
from pygame.locals import *
from pygame.color import THECOLORS

if not pygame.font:
print 'Atention, there are no fonts.'

if not pygame.mixer:
print 'Atention, there is no sound.'

pygame.init()

blue = (0, 0, 255)
red = (255, 0, 0)
black = (0, 0, 0)


window_width = 1280
window_height = 960

window = pygame.display.set_mode((window_width, window_height))

def circle_func(color, xpos, ypos, ray, movement_x, movment_y):
circle = pygame.draw.circle(window, color, (xpos, ypos), ray)
return circle

circle = circle_func(red, 50, 50, 20, 3, 3)
circle2 = circle_func(blue, 100, 100, 10, 3, 3)


pygame.display.flip()

pygame.key.set_repeat(1000, 100)

while True:
for event in pygame.event.get():
pass

key_pressed = pygame.key.get_pressed()

if key_pressed[K_LEFT]:
xpos -= movement_x

if key_pressed[K_RIGHT]:
xpos += movement_x


if key_pressed[K_UP]:
ypos -= movement_y

if key_pressed[K_DOWN]:
ypos += movement_y

window.fill(black)
circle = circle_func(red, 50, 50, 20, 3, 3)
circle2 = circle_func(blue, 100, 100, 10, 3, 3)
pygame.display.flip()*

when you try to move the circles with the left, right, down or up arrow keys
it spits out an error saying "xpos is not defined" or "ypos is not defined"
depending on if you hit the left/right or up/down keys, please show me what
i am doing wrong!

[Tutor] Need help with python game program

[jonathan wallis]

My problem is simple, is their a way to make a variable equal multiple
numbers? Such as X = 5 through 10, and then the program makes x  equal
something random 5 through 10, or something similar.
