Accessing other class' function in Python

I'm very new to Python, so sorry about what will surely be an obvious question. I want the class Computer_paddle to be able to call Ball's function, y_position(), and get the return value. But it doesn't seem to be doing that, telling me:

"global name 'ball' is not defined". 

Is there something special I need to do to call a function within another function?

class Ball(games.Sprite):
    """ A ball that bounces off walls and paddles. """
    image = games.load_image("ball.png")

    def __init__(self, game, x, y):
        """ Initialise ball sprite. """
        super(Ball, self).__init__(image = Ball.image,
                                   x = x, y = y,
                                   dx = -3, dy = 0)

    def update(self):
        """Check if ball has hit paddle or wall, and then bounce that ball. """
        super(Ball, self).update()

        # check if ball overlaps paddles
        if self.overlapping_sprites:
            self.dx = -self.dx
            self.dy += random.randint(-1, 1)

        # check if ball hits a wall
        if self.top < 0 or self.bottom > games.screen.height:
            self.dy = -self.dy
        if self.left < 0 or self.right > games.screen.width:
            self.dx = -self.dx

    def y_position(self):
        return self.y

class Paddle(games.Sprite):
    """ A paddle that can only partly leave the screen. """
    image = games.load_image("paddle.png")

    def __init__(self, game, x, y):
        """ Initialise paddle sprite."""
        super(Paddle, self).__init__(image = Paddle.image, x = x, y = y)

    def update(self):
        """ Prevent sprite from completely leaving the screen. """
        if self.top < -33:
            self.top = -33

        if self.bottom > games.screen.height + 33:
            self.bottom = games.screen.height + 33

class Human_paddle(Paddle):
    """ A paddle controlled by the player. """

    def update(self):
        """ Move paddle to mouse position. """
        super(Human_paddle, self).update()

        self.y = games.mouse.y

class Computer_paddle(Paddle):
    """ A paddle controlled by the computer. """
    MAX_SPEED = 1

    def update(self):
        """ Move paddle towards ball's position on Y-axis. """
        super(Computer_paddle, self).update()

        ball_y = ball.y_position()

        if ball_y > self.y:
            self.开发者_StackOverflow中文版y += MAX_SPEED
        if ball_y < self.y:
            self.y -= MAX_SPEED


No, but you need to have a reference to an object in order to access its methods. Since you never bind ball to anything, there's no object to call the methods on. Did you mean to create ball as an instance of Ball at a global level?


Right now all the attributes and methods you defined for the "Ball" class are instance specific: to be able to access them you would need to

  • create a Ball instance
  • then pass that ball instance to the paddle instances that need to have knowledge of it

So something like this : Somewhere in the code create a ball instance:

ball_1=Ball(game, 0,0)

Then change your Paddle's update method to accept a ball instance as a parameter:

def update(self,ball):

And when calling the update method on any paddle that needs to have knowledge of the ball:

my_paddle.update(ball_1)

This way, the paddle objects will know what ball's y position you are trying to access.

Of course you could do this a number of different ways, as long as you somehow pass a ball instance to the paddle so it knows what ball it needs to query for its y position.

Hope this helps!


You need to instantiate the class Ball anywhere and make this instance available for the Computer_paddle instance.

I'd suggest a handler-class that organizes the game and has attributes accessible from the paddles. (Or you could also subclass the Game-class of the games module.)

class GameHandle(object):
    def __init__(self):
        self.game = games.Game() # or however to create a game instance
        self.ball = Ball(self.game, 0, 0)
        self.player1 = Human_paddle(self.game, -100, 0, self)
        self.player2 = Computer_paddle(self.game, 100, 0, self)

class Paddle(games.Sprite):
    def __init__(self, game, x, y, handle):
        # ...
        self.handle = handle

class Computer_paddle(Paddle):
    def update(self):
        # ...

        ball_y = self.handle.ball.y_position()

        # ...
