Shared Python Code

This is our own shared code page. Here you can/should add ready-made, good and working code snippets for other to use. It is highly recommended to share stuff, AS IT MAKES EVERYONE'S LIFE EASIER. No need to invent the wheel twice.

So, add the codes underneath. You can copy the template underneath and just add to the line:

• Group: Group name
• Description: What this snippet does

example.py

# This is just a print hello world! example
print "Hello World"

• Group: Group 2
• Description: It creates 2 buttons and 2 labels, pressing the buttons change the text of one of the labels.

buttons.py
