Introduction

International Mines tournaments have declined lately, but there is word that a new one is in the

works — rumor has it that it could be even bigger than the legendary Budapest 2005 one, in no

small part because inhabitants of planet Htrae might be attending.

What better way to get prepared for the tournament than to write your own implementation?

There's just a small twist. Planet Htrae is not very different from Earth, except that space in the

Yklim way, Htrae's star cluster, doesn't have three dimensions — at least, not always: it

fluctuates between 2 and, on the worst days, 60. In fact, it's not uncommon for an Htraean to

wake up flat, for example, and finish the day in 7 dimensions — only to find themselves living in

to three or four dimensions on the next morning. It takes a bit of time to get used to it, of course.

In any case, Htraeans are pretty particular about playingMines. Kids on Htrae always play on

regular, 2D boards, but champions like to play on higher-dimensional boards, usually on as

many dimensions as the surrounding space. Your code will have to support this, of course.

Here's the weather advisory for the week of the tournament:

...VERY DIMENSIONAL IN SOUTHWEST OHADI ON YADRIF...

.AN EXITING LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM WILL INCREASE NORTHWEST DIMENSIONAL

FLUX IN AND SOUTH OF THE EKANS RIVER BASIN ON YADRIF. ESIOB IS NOW

INCLUDED IN THE ADVISORY BUT THE STRONGEST FLUX WILL BE SOUTH AND

EAST OF MOUNTAIN EMOH TOWARD THE CIMAG VALLEY.

ZDI014>030-231330-016-

UPPER ERUSAERT VALLEY-SOUTHWEST HYPERLANDS-WESTERN CIMAG VALLEY-

1022 MP TDM UHT PES 22 6102

...DIMENSION ADVISORY REMAINS IN EFFECT FROM 10 MA TO 9 MP ON

YADIRF...

  • DIMENSIONAL FLUX...30 TO 35 DIMENSIONS WITH GUSTS TO 45.

  • IMPACTS...CROSSFLUXES WILL MAKE FOR DIFFICULT TRAVELLING

CONDITIONS ON LOW-DIMENSIONAL ROADS.

This lab trains the following skills:

Manipulating 2- and N-dimensional arrays implemented with nested lists

Recursively exploring simple graphs and nested data structures

Writing doctests and documenting functions

Since most of the difficulty of this lab lies in implementing recursive functions, please do not use

standard library modules that use recursion behind the scenes, such as itertools .

Part 2 of this lab is tricky; please plan accordingly.

That's a lot to ask since it's homework. You pasted hundreds of lines so do the following in this order.

  1. Read https://www.daniweb.com/programming/threads/435023/read-this-before-posting-a-question
  2. It's rare to find folk to read past 100 lines. If you have a function that long, it is accepted that you break it up into manageable chunks.
  3. Pare down your request to where you are having trouble and where it's at.

okay thank you for your reply. I apologize. I dindt nkow how to post a quesiton. this is the first time.

Can you please help me with the first 40 lines please. and let me know what i am doing wrong there.

I think you need to pare this down more. I started reading at line 1 and by line 20 I finally reached where you might be asking a question.

Since you know your use of the arrays and what it means, I think you need a python debugger tool. Or need to learn how to print values so you can see what your code and variables are at some line of code.
https://www.google.com/search?q=python+debugging shows there is a debugger so if I was working this, I would be using that to check over the varialbes as it runs.
