Hi Greg,
You must use the class definition not an instance/object of it. If the class
is called CarClass
from some_lib_a.sub_lib_b import CarClass
[...]
isinstance(car, CarClass)
OR
import some_lib_a
[...]
isinstance(car, some_lib_a.sub_lib_b.CarClass)
The following does NOT work:
isinstance(car, CarClass())
if you want to check multiple classes use
isinstance(car, (Class1, Class2))

Ramit,
First, thank you for your input and insight into my problem, I believe
that the code you came up with should not only be more efficient, but also
clear up the last of my issues. I just have a quick question on the isinstance
command you called. How exactly do I get the code to recognize it as a class I
wrote sitting in an imported library file? I would guess that it would look
sort of like this:
if crash:
for car in crash:
if isinstance(car, redracersprites26.BlueCarSprite()):
redracersprites26.BlueCarSprite.collide(car, playerCar)
However, worded as it the follow error and call back happens:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "C:\Users\Greg\Documents\NetBeansProjects\Red Racer
26\src\redracer26.py", line 19, in <module>
main()
File "C:\Users\Greg\Documents\NetBeansProjects\Red Racer
26\src\redracer26.py", line 16, in main
redracerstates26.game(startLives)
File "C:\Users\Greg\Documents\NetBeansProjects\Red Racer
26\src\redracerstates26.py", line 87, in game
if isinstance(car, redracersprites26.BlueCarSprite()):
TypeError: isinstance() arg 2 must be a class, type, or tuple of classes and
types
I must be using the wrong syntax in the second argument. I think I should be
able to find the documentation for this (extremely cool) method you showed me,
but if you know the proper way to cite my object, could you send me what you
think will work. This way I can have something to double check my work against
if I don't get it right first time round. Thank you again for your time and
assistance Ramit.
