Welcome… this is a simple example of some basic python commands that creates a code breaking game. The explanation lines have been commented out so you can simply copy and paste the whole document into IDLE (or similar) and see it working, or print to use as a help guide. The task can be extended to include a longer code, different scoring systems, characters instead of numbers, password guesses or allow one player to enter a code that the other has to guess then swap turns… and loads more!

Welcome… This is designed to be used after the Beginning Python Programming examples. The price helps support the free resources also published and gets me a coffee. A more complex demonstration of how you can build a dungeon/map game. The game utilises a 2D Array to store a map so that directions can be correctly calculated depending on the player position. The progam also uses a global variable for the map, functions, integer floor division and modulus for time calculations. Development of the game could include: Changing the map, altering the size of the map (look out for limiting variables), adding a wandering monster, adding a new message for the starting square, increasing difficulty, adding a new scoring system and lots more that I’m sure you’ll think of.
