Hello list!
I have started teaching Python to a group of High School students. I set them the "Guess the Number" game as a GUI as an assignment. One of the students has passed in some script that is foreign to any tutorial work we have done. Some of it is below. Does anyone recognise it? Can you tell me where it would have been downloaded from? I have searched for scripted guess the number games, but there are thousands of them - except for a Python version.
If my student has plagiarised - I need to know.
TIA Diana
I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but I'm afraid he has: http://granite.sru.edu/~conlon/python/tk_guess.py
This looks awfully similar, down to the use of whrandom instead of random. First hit in Google for "guess the number" +python +tkinter.
Seems like your student is not only guilty of plagiarism, but also in violation of the GPL.
Hope that helps,
