Is this by any chance from the LiveWires tutorial?
If so they tend to use a lot of mod8ules that are specific
to their course so only folks with LiveWires experience
are likely to be able to help.

You need to give us some context as to where these come from
and where the graphics.py mentioned is found. Its not part of
the standard Python library.

Also it woyuld be good to tell us what part of the problem you
don't understand! The more specific the question the greater
the chance of an effective answer.

You mail themailing list and the server forwards it to everyone
on the list. We "Reply All" and the list server will forward the
reply to you and the list.

There are at least 3 web sites where you can read the messages
too, but a mail client is usually more powerful and faster.

Finally gmane do a news (nntp) feed that you can subscribe to
and receivecon your favoured news reader. In my view the best
of both worlds! :-)

We don't offer solutions to homework for many reasons. I assume this is 
homework.

However if you show us a program (or even a program design) you've 
written and tell us where you are stuck we are glad to help.

We email you and the tutor list. Please reply to the list not just to 
the author.

[Tutor] hello can you help me solve this problem

2008-03-05 Thread Christopher Marlett
This may be a very broad question but whatever help you could give me would be 
great.

Exercise 2.4.5.1. * Make a program scene.py creating a scene with the graphics 
methods. You are likely to need to adjust the positions of objects by trial and 
error until you get the positions you want. Make sure you have graphics.py in 
the same directory as your program.

Exercise 2.4.5.2. * Elaborate your scene program so it becomes changeScene.py, 
and changes one or more times when you click the mouse (and use 
win.getMouse()). You may use the position of the mouse click to affect the 
result, or it may just indicate you are ready to go on to the next view. 

Also, I don't quite understand how this works. Do you e mail me with your 
response or is there a website I need to visit to see my question and your 
response posted?
