Work on this lab with your partner (or on your own if you have not been assigned one).
Unless otherwise indicated, use only the Python operations and commands we have described thus far in class.
Show your work for a given problem to the instructor or one of the lab assistants before moving on to the next problem, but do not get too bogged down on any one problem.
In the common case, you will not complete the exercises during our scheduled lab. It is then up to you to complete the lab on your own time.
Rename your file to have both your names in it as:
labA_alpha_beta.py
(if your names were Alpha and
Beta).
Email me a copy of your work (attach your version of the
labA
file - named as just indicated) by replying to the
email that officially announces the lab. If working with a lab
partner send me just one copy for the pair, but CC your partner.
Try out Conway’s Game of Life.
Download and unzip the starter archive. Use
IDLE to open labA_examples.py
in the labA
folder. Read the functions defined in that file and experiment with
using them. In particular, try:
>>> graphic_loop_example()
Included in the labA
folder is a runnable solution
module called labAx.py
. You can use it to see the final
“game” result:
>>> import labAx
>>> labAx.game()
