A co-worker and I want to increase our knowledge of Python. I have a tiny bit
of exposure to python. He has none, but
has wide experience with C, C++, NET, C#, etc. We agreed we'd do a Sudoku
solver. I'd do the GUI, he would do the
solver code.
My question is this: I assume that once I invoke mauinloop, the loop just
cycles between bound events...(if not true,
please tell me)...so how do I "branch" out to the solver code, which will be in
another module? Is that the function of
my "SOLVE" button..i.e., the callback associated with the SOLVE button 'asks'
for an updated cell list, then writes the
cell values to the GUI? I'm stuck..:)
I've posted the entire GUI code below..please forgive the length. Usage: when a
cell has the focus (mouse-over),
pressing a number key will cause that number to be displayed in that cell. Any
other key will 'erase' the currently
displayed cell number, if any.
Thanks,
Norm
