Question

Please I have a problem with Python functions and return.

from graphics import*
win = GraphWin('Me',640,160)


mylist=[]
def move_ob(ob):

    ob.move(4,0)
    return ob

def circle():
    for x in range (10,200,10):
        for y in range (10,200,10):
            c =Circle (Point(x,y),5)
            c.draw(win)
            mylist.append(c)


def main():
    circle()
    win.getMouse()
    move_ob(mylist)

    win.getMouse()
    win.close()

main()

What I ever I do it gives me this Error

ob.move(4,0)
AttributeError: 'list' object has no attribute 'move'

PS: that Library is from the book of John Zelle, learning python basics..

I want to make those circles I make move…

Answer 1

You are passing in mylist, which is a list. Lists have no idea what move is.

I assume you want to move all the circles in the list. Therefore, you might want:

for circleObject in mylist:
    move_ob(circle)

Rather than move_ob(mylist).
