I realize that one of you told me that there is no livewires for python
v3.1.1 but the book that I am reading teaches v3.1.1 and the code that is
presented in the book has a line that imports a module from the livewires
package. Now since the book covers v3.1.1, I would have to conclude that
the code containing the line "from livewires import games" should work in
version 3.1.1. They gave me a website to go and download a version of
livewires that would work (www.courseptr.com/downloads) and I went there
but I could not find that download anywhere. I think the website might have
changed since the book was written. If anybody knows where I can get the
version of livewires I need I would be truly greatful. My book is entitled
Python Programming for the Absolute Beginner Third Edition. Anyway, here is
the code that my book insists should work.

According to one of the reviews on Amazon, that's because the author of the book has written his own customized version of Livewires which you have to use.

The book quite clearly says so too:

TRAP Although you're welcome to visit the web site of the LiveWires
organization at http://www.livewires.org.uk , be aware that the
     livewires package used in this book is a modified version of the
     package that LiveWires created.



Someone there told me they would've given up by now but I am not giving up
on this one or anything else. Just to give you a heads up, you will be
getting questions about this until this program works. Thanks for your help.

While I admire your persistence, we are all volunteers and may not appreciate being asked the same questions over and over and over again to no value.

I'm just saying that at some point, you may have to expect that we'll stop answering questions if we think we're just wasting our time. If the author's custom version is not available, and the standard version doesn't work, then we're probably wasting our time.
