| − | # Copy catch.py from Section 8.10 in [http://openbookproject.net/thinkcs/python/english2e/ch08.html Case Study: Catch] to pong.py and change the mitt into a paddle by using Box instead of the Circle. You can look at [http://openbookproject.net/thinkCSpy/app_b.html Appendix B] for more information on Box. Make the adjustments needed to keep the paddle on the screen. | + | # Each player should be able to move the paddles up and down |
| − | # When you play the Catch game, the ball collides and is caught. In Pong, we want the ball to bounce back if there is a collision. If the ball collides, you should make it bounce back along the x-axis. Hint: We have already made the ball bounce in the y-axes when it hits the top or bottom of the screen. | + | # The ball should bounce if there is a collision. If the ball collides, you should make it bounce back along the x-axis. In order to bounce, negate the ball's direction (multiply by negative 1) |
| − | # Notice that the ball's collision with the paddle is not exact. We need to fix this...
| + | # ... |
| − | ## Replace the distance function with a boolean function hit(bx, by, r, px, py, h), which will return True if the ball hits the paddle and False otherwise. The ball hits the paddle when all the following are True:
| + | # ... |
| − | ##* The vertical coordinate of the ball (by) is between the bottom (py) and top (py+h) of the paddle | + | # ... |
| − | ##* The horizontal location of the ball (bx) + its radius (r) is greater than the front of the paddle (px) | |
| − | ## Use hit to determine when the ball hits the paddle, and make the ball bounce back in the opposite horizontal direction when hit returns True. Your completed function should pass these doctests:
