Is my code completing the assignment???
No.
I need some *guidance* on completing my assignment.
Try running your code. Then fix the errors. If you can't fix them come back to us and ask for help, including the error message and a description of what happened and what you expected.
My Attempt Code: class SparseLifeGrid : Cell = ["row", "col"]
What is this for?
def __init__( self ): self._rowList = [] self._colList = [] self._cellSet = set() def _binarySearch( self, target ) : low = 0 high = len(self._cellSet - 1) while low <= high : mid = (high + low) // 2 if theList[mid] == target : return (True, mid) elif target < theList[mid] : high = mid - 1 else : low = mid + 1 return (False, low)
This just tells you which half the item is in. Is that what you wanted?
def minRange( self ): return (sorted(self._rowList)[0], sorted(self._rowList)[0])
This returns the same value twice.
def maxRange( self ): return (sorted(self._rowList, reverse = True)[0],\ sorted(self._colList, reverse = True)[0])
You don;t need the line continuation character (/) if you are inside parens. def f(): return (expression1, expression2)
# Clears the individual cell (row, col) and sets it to dead. If the cell is # already dead, no action is taken def clearCell( self, row, col ): for item in self : if item == Cell(row, col) : self.remove(item)
How do you expect to iterate over self? self is your class instance but it has nothing to iterate over?
def setCell( self, row, col ): LIVE_CELL = 1 Cell[row, col] = LIVE_CELL
Here you create a new Cell instance then try to assign a value to it, then throw it away. I'm pretty sure thats not what you want.
def isLiveCell( self, row, col): return Cell(row,col) in self
Again how are you testing 'in' self. There is nothing in your class to support that.
def numLiveNeighbors( self, row, col ): surround = 0 if self.isLiveCell(row + 1, col) : surround += 1 if self.isLiveCell(row - 1, col) : surround += 1 if self.isLiveCell(row, col + 1) : surround += 1 if self.isLiveCell(row, col - 1) : surround += 1
How many neighbours does a cell have in a Life grid?
