Beginner, so please bare with me. I'm not sure what to call what it is I'm looking for.
If I have an object class, let's call it "Creature": class Creature: def __init__(self, status): self.status = "happy" def change_status(self, new_status): self.status = new_status def print_status(self): print self.status I would like to be able to print out the Creature's status every 20 seconds. Let's say I use a script like this: import time while True: time.sleep(20) Creature.print_status() But, while cycling through printing the status, I would like to be able to update Creature.status to something new. I might be approaching this from the wrong direction entirely. Thanks for your input. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
