Code Wont Draw Circles :@

[Blackberryy]

This code should draw the concentric circle in a patch design and alternate its colours between, Red, Blue, Green(or whatever the user enters from the validColours list) but it wont work. Somebody fix this please.

from graphics import *

def main():
    x = 0
    y = 0
    while not(3<=x<=9):
        x = input("Enter The Width Of Your Patch: ")
    while not(3<=y<=9):    
        y = input("Enter The Height Of Your Patch: ")
    validColours = ["red", "green", "blue", "orange", "grey"]
    colour1 = "" 
    colour2 = ""
    colour3 = ""
    while not(colour1 in validColours):
        colour1 = raw_input("Enter The 1st Colour Of Your Design: ")
    while colour2 ==  colour1 or not(colour2 in validColours):    
        colour2 = raw_input("Enter The 2nd Colour Of Your Design: ")
    while colour3 == colour1 or colour3 == colour2 or not(colour3  in validColours):    
        colour3 = raw_input("Enter The 3rd Colour Of Your Design: ")
        win = GraphWin("MiniProject", x * 100, y * 100)
    borderColour =[colour1,colour2,colour3] * x + [colour1,colour2,colour3] * y
    drawPatch1(win, x, y, borderColour)
    
   
   
def drawPatch1(win, x, y, borderColour):
	for i in range(10):
		radius = 50 - (i * 5)
		patch1 = Circle(Point(100, 100 + (i * 5)), radius)
		patch1.setOutline(borderColour)
		patch1.draw(win)

Where did you get the module graphics from?? I don't have it on my default list of libraries.

The university im studying at provided the link for us to download it.

hopefully this works for you

I do not know what you want to accomplish, but this code does at least something:

from graphics import *

def main():
    x = 0
    y = 0
    while not(3<=x<=9):
        x = int(raw_input("Enter The Width Of Your Patch: "))
    while not(3<=y<=9):
        y = int(raw_input("Enter The Height Of Your Patch: "))
    validColours = ["red", "green", "blue", "orange", "grey"]
    colour1 = ""
    colour2 = ""
    colour3 = ""
    while not(colour1 in validColours):
        colour1 = raw_input("Enter The 1st Colour Of Your Design: ")
    while colour2 ==  colour1 or not(colour2 in validColours):
        colour2 = raw_input("Enter The 2nd Colour Of Your Design: ")
    while colour3 == colour1 or colour3 == colour2 or not(colour3  in validColours):
        colour3 = raw_input("Enter The 3rd Colour Of Your Design: ")
    win = GraphWin("MiniProject", x * 100, y * 100)
    borderColour =[colour1,colour2,colour3] * x + [colour1,colour2,colour3] * y
    drawPatch1(win, x, y, borderColour)
    win.mainloop()
 
def drawPatch1(win, x, y, borderColour):
	for i, colour in enumerate(borderColour):
		radius = 50 - (i * 5)
		patch1 = Circle(Point(100, 100 + (i * 5)), radius)
		patch1.setOutline(colour)
		patch1.draw(win)
main()

Tony thanks for your help, i should have worded it better. Basically our task is to draw a patchwork quilt sort of thing that looks like the image below. I have drawn the first patch which is the border, (the concentric circles) image of them is below, and i havent yet drawn the second patch. So i am attempting to draw the whole quilt using the circle design, and the colours must alternate from red to blue to green. Hopefully the pictures will help.

[TrustyTony]

So you should have color going around all time red-blue-green and every second line (odd zero based count inside the sub pattern) is unfilled at min or max of x or y, in middle the other pattern with white square at center. Still I do not see connection to the expanding ripple pattern.

Okay, any ideas how to have the circle design on the whole patch alternating colours ?? thanks

[richieking]

Do you have to use the graphic module ???

[Blackberryy]

Yeahh thats the only thing we've been taught to use. So yeah has to be grpahics/
