- # Prints one blank line
- #
- # The version of the function new_line() in the instructions looks like this:
- #
- ## def new_line():
- ## print()
- #
- # However, that version of the function doesn't work in Python2. In Python2, it
- # doesn't print blank lines. Instead, it prints the string representation of
- # empty tuples. That's obviously now what we want. So, I took out the
- # parentheses and made the function look like this:
- #
- ## def new_line():
- ## print
- #
- # Success! It now worked in Python2! So what was the problem? Well, it now no
- # longer worked in Python3! If I recall, "print" is a keyword in Python2, but a
- # function in Python3. In Python, functions are objects, and we all know that
- # objects are a type of variable. (In Python, all variables are objects, but
- # that's not the point. The point is that all functions are variables in
- # Python.) With out the parentheses, it was no longer a function call, but
- # simply an expression without an assignment! I ended up settling on the
- # implementation below, which works in both Python2 and Python3.
- def new_line():
- print("")
- # Prints three blank lines
- def three_lines():
- new_line()
- new_line()
- new_line()
- # Prints nine blank lines
- def nine_lines():
- three_lines()
- three_lines()
- three_lines()
- # Prints twenty-five blank lines
- # ( 9 + 9 + 3 + 3 + 1 == 25 )
- def clear_screen():
- nine_lines()
- nine_lines()
- three_lines()
- three_lines()
- new_line()
- # The assignment instructions say to define both nine_lines() and
- # clear_screen(), but only says to actually call clear_screen(). In theory,
- # this script should call clear_screen() but should avoid calling nine_lines().
- # However, the instructions also say to put separators between the output of the
- # functions. That seems to heavily imply that both functions get called. The
- # assignment also doesn't explicitly say *not* to call both functions, so I'm
- # calling them both to be safe and hope that that's okay.
- #
- # This next part is pretty much documented by the calls to print(), so I'm done
- # commenting now. I would live to have put a print statement after the call to
- # clear_screen() to contain the blank lines between visible lines, but the
- # instructions specifically state that the call to clear_screen() should be on
- # the final line.
- #
- # Oh wait, now that I think about it, it'll be contained by the prompt that
- # shows up after the script completes.
