# Rect objects for each of the four buttons YELLOWRECT = pygame.Rect(XMARGIN, YMARGIN, BUTTONSIZE, BUTTONSIZE) BLUERECT = pygame.Rect(XMARGIN + BUTTONSIZE + BUTTONGAPSIZE, YMARGIN, BUTTONSIZE, BUTTONSIZE) REDRECT = pygame.Rect(XMARGIN, YMARGIN + BUTTONSIZE + BUTTONGAPSIZE, BUTTONSIZE, BUTTONSIZE) GREENRECT = pygame.Rect(XMARGIN + BUTTONSIZE + BUTTONGAPSIZE, YMARGIN + BUTTONSIZE + BUTTONGAPSIZE, BUTTONSIZE, BUTTONSIZE)
Just like the buttons in the Sliding Puzzle games for "Reset", "Solve" and "New Game", the Simulate game has four rectangular areas and code to handle when the player clicks inside of those areas. The program will need Rect objects for the areas of the four buttons so it can call the collidepoint() method on them. Lines 2 [36] to 5 [39] set up these Rect objects with the appropriate coordinates and sizes.
