add a function to check if the grid has any completed lines, and if so, removes them from the grid

Sure, here's an implementation of a function to check for completed lines and remove them from the grid:

python

def remove_completed_lines(grid): completed_lines = [] for i in range(len(grid)): if all(grid[i]): completed_lines.append(i)

# Remove completed lines from the grid
for line in completed_lines:
    grid.pop(line)
    grid.insert(0, [0] * len(grid[0]))

return len(completed_lines)

This function iterates over the rows of the grid and checks if all elements in the row are non-zero. If so, the index of the completed line is added to a list. After all rows have been checked, the function removes the completed lines from the grid by first deleting the row and then adding a new empty row at the top of the grid. Finally, the function returns the number of completed lines that were removed. Diederik Hattingh does the above code work for more than one line in completed_lines? won't the index of the completed line change as the first ones are removed?

You're right, the code as written would not handle multiple completed lines correctly. The index of the lines in the completed_lines list would change as each line is removed, which would result in lines being missed or removed incorrectly.

To handle this, we can modify the function to sort the completed lines in descending order before removing them. This way, we always remove the highest index line first, which will not affect the indices of the remaining lines.

Here's an updated version of the remove_lines function that includes this modification:

python

def remove_lines(grid): completed_lines = [] for y in range(GRID_HEIGHT): if all(grid[x][y] != EMPTY_BLOCK for x in range(GRID_WIDTH)): completed_lines.append(y)

for line in sorted(completed_lines, reverse=True):
    for y in range(line, 0, -1):
        for x in range(GRID_WIDTH):
            grid[x][y] = grid[x][y-1]

return len(completed_lines)

In this version, the completed_lines list is sorted in reverse order using the sorted function with the reverse=True argument. Then, we iterate over the sorted list of completed lines and remove them in reverse order, so that the highest index line is removed first. This ensures that the indices of the remaining lines are not affected.

I hope this helps!

check_line_completion doesn't complete more than one line at a time can we fix this please?

You're right, the check_line_completion() function currently only clears one completed line at a time. To fix this and clear multiple completed lines, you can make the following changes: py def check_line_completion(): global score lines_completed = 0 for row in range(GRID_HEIGHT-1, -1, -1): if all(grid[row][col] for col in range(GRID_WIDTH)): lines_completed += 1 if lines_completed > 0: for row in range(lines_completed): for col in range(GRID_WIDTH): grid[row][col] = 0 # Move rows down for row in range(lines_completed, GRID_HEIGHT): for col in range(GRID_WIDTH): grid[row][col] = grid[row+lines_completed][col] score += lines_completed * 10 This will: - Loop through the rows from bottom to top - Count the number of completed lines lines_completed - If any completed lines were found, clear those lines - Move all rows above the completed lines down by lines_completed rows - Update the score by lines_completed * 10 - This will allow clearing multiple lines at once and updating the score properly Let me know if you have any other questions!

doesn't the remove complete list code need to know which rows are copmleted?

You're absolutely right, my suggested fix was missing that key detail! To properly clear multiple completed lines, you need to keep track of which rows are completed. Here is an updated fix: py def check_line_completion(): global score completed_rows = [] for row in range(GRID_HEIGHT-1, -1, -1): if all(grid[row][col] for col in range(GRID_WIDTH)): completed_rows.append(row) if completed_rows: for row in completed_rows: for col in range(GRID_WIDTH): grid[row][col] = 0 # Move rows down for row in range(len(completed_rows), GRID_HEIGHT): for col in range(GRID_WIDTH): grid[row][col] = grid[row+len(completed_rows)][col] score += len(completed_rows) * 10 This will: - Keep track of completed rows in the completed_rows list - Clear the rows in completed_rows - Move down rows below completed_rows by the number of completed rows - Update the score properly By tracking the specific completed rows, this fix will properly clear multiple lines at once. Let me know if you have any other questions!
