You have something like this:


...code...
...more code...
path1pt1()
...
...

def path1pt1():
definition goes here



Select the text starting with "def path1pt1" in your text editor, and ending
with the end of the function. Then cut the text (Ctrl-X), move the cursor to
the top of the file, and paste it (Ctrl-V). Clean up any extra blank lines
needed. Your code should then look like this:


def path1pt1():
definition goes here

...code...
...more code...
path1pt1()
...
...

I was curious about this post, and so I looked back through your previous
posts.  They all seem to be about getting this game code to work.  I'm
guessing that you copied it from somewhere -- or mostly copied it.  You
don't seem to have a grasp of basic concepts of programming in python.
This seems to be a good example of cargo cult programming
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cargo_cult_programming I suggest you set aside
this project and go to the python online tutorial, or use Alan's book
http://www.alan-g.me.uk/ , or google for Leaning Python the hard way, and
get some basic concepts together in your mind.

Also, set your mail client to text -- not rich text or html.  Since
indentation in python is essential to the meaning of the code, using rich
text which often mangles indentation makes your examples impossible to
decipher.

When you've done that you will be able to ask question here that will help
you learn more and raise your skill level.

Move the code that defines path1pt1 above the function that calls it.

Also, don't start of new thread -- you are making it impossible for someone
to know the context of your question.  Also, Use a better subject line

It's generally easier to stick to one problem at a time.
Otherwise we all get confused!

1. Create a random "signal" (600 random numbers in the range -50 to +50). 
Display it as shown below.
2. Create a filter variable (integer) which is allowed to go from 0 to 
infinity. Allow the user to change this
with the up/down arrow keys. The user should have to release the key and press 
it again to go up /
down one level.
3. Apply a "box filter" to the original signal.
  If filter is 0, the signal should be the same as the original
  If filter is 1, you should, for each signal element i (of the new 
signal), average the i-1, i, and i+1
  elements of the original signal.
  If filter is 2, you should, for each signal element i (of the new 
signal), average the i-2, i-1, i, i+1,
  and i+2 elements of the original signal iv. ...
  Note: if the i-? or i+? element is "out of bounds", don't include it. 
For example, if filter is 1, and you are calculating the 0th   element of 
the new signal, you should only average the 0th and 1th element of the original signal.

Thank you ahead of time!



I'm reminded of the film Coogan's Bluff.  I have the Lee J Cobb role, 
you're Clint Eastwood.

Which site did you go to? "virtualenv" is not a site, it is a name. Precision 
of language is your friend -- when asking for help, please be precise and 
accurate in your descriptions.


When I google for "virtualenv", the very first link that comes up is this:

http://pypi.python.org/pypi/virtualenv

Is that the site you went to? If not, which site did you go to?

On that site, there is a link "Downloads" almost at the top of the page, 
immediately under the title:


virtualenv 1.7.1.2
Virtual Python Environment builder
Downloads


Clicking on the Downloads link takes you directly to the download area, where 
you can download a source tarball (.tar.gz file).



Or if you prefer, there are other instructions for installing it. Do you have 
pip installed on your computer? If so, you can run


pip install virtualenv

from the command line (NOT the Python interactive interpreter) to 
automatically install virtualenv.


Or if all else fails, the site above links directly to a single Python file 
which you can save to your hard drive.
