This is my code, it seems as though the temp matrix is not updating correctly, but I cannot figure out why. I am very new to python and really am having trouble solve this issue.
cell = [[0 for i in range(10)] for j in range(10)]
temp=[[0 for i in range(10)] for j in range(10)]
def load():
cell[1][3]=1
cell[2][3]=1
cell[3][3]=1
def cycle():
for x in range(10):
for y in range(10):
checkSurroundingAndChange(x,y)
def checkSurroundingAndChange(i,j):
surrounding=0
if i-1>=0 and j+1<10 and cell[i-1][j+1] == 1: surrounding= surrounding+1
if j+1<10 and cell[i][j+1] == 1: surrounding= surrounding+1
if j+1<10 and i+1<10 and cell[i+1][j+1] == 1: surrounding= surrounding+1
if i-1>=0 and cell[i-1][j] == 1: surrounding= surrounding+1
if i+1<10 and cell[i+1][j] == 1: surrounding= surrounding+1
if j-1>=0 and i-1>=0 and cell[i-1][j-1] == 1: surrounding= surrounding+1
if j-1>=0 and cell[i][j-1] == 1: surrounding= surrounding+1
if j-1>=0 and i+1<10 and cell[i+1][j-1] == 1: surrounding= surrounding+1
if cell[i][j]==0 and surrounding==3:temp[i][j]==1
elif cell[i][j]==1 and surrounding<2:temp[i][j]==0
elif cell[i][j]==1 and (surrounding==2 or surrounding==3):temp[i][j]==1
elif cell[i][j]==1 and surrounding>3:temp[i][j]==0
for i in range(10):
print (cell[i])
print ("////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////")
load()
cycle()
for i in range(10):
print (temp[i])
You have too many = here
temp[i][j]==1
Meaning that Python is just doing a comparison and throwing away the result.
It should be an assignment. ie.
temp[i][j] = 1
same problem for the cases setting to 0
Cramming up the code makes it much harder to spot bugs like this. You should try to find a more elegant way to implement checkSurroundingAndChange
