# Filename: OrangutanDave.py # Title: Dave the Orangutan # Function: Creates an object (an orangutan called Dave) and gives it the # co-ordinates (2,2). The program then displays how far (in a straight line) # 'Dave' is from the point (5,3) where his favourite food is. # Author: Philip Burling # Date: 28/04/07 # This line imports the class 'OrangUtan' from the file 'OrangUtan.py' (which # should be in the same directory) along with its associated functions. from OrangUtan import * # This line creates the object 'Dave' of the class 'OrangUtan' and assigns it a # name, x co-ordinate and y co-ordinate. Dave = OrangUtan("Dave", 2, 2) # This line prints the distance (as the crow flies) that Dave is from the # location of the food at (5,3). It finds this distance by calling the function # 'distanceFrom' from the imported rules from the file 'OrangUtan.py' print "Dave is", Dave.distanceFrom(5, 3), "units from his food"
