Line 52: − * When do we determine which block stacks are to be run? When we convert the code to Python or when the Python code is executed?+ −
Summer of Code/2013/Turtle Blocks Python export project (view source)
Revision as of 11:12, 14 June 2013
, 11:12, 14 June 2013add a decision on running unnamed stacks; defer the pending decision on the speed of execution
* The generated Python code will setup a window without menus and palettes. It will only be a plain canvas. Turtles will be visible with their (default or custom) sprites because this is the only way to make sprites move in TA.

* Code in named stacks will be put into functions with the same name. Blocks appended to the 'start' block will be put into a function called <code>start()</code>. Unnamed stacks will also be put into extra functions with auto-generated names (e.g., <code>unnamed_stack_1()</code>).

* Run only the block stack that has a 'start' block at the top. If there is no 'start' block, notify the user, but don't execute unnamed stacks. (TA itself should show the same behavior.)

The following design issues have yet to be decided:
* Enable the user to control the speed of execution (e.g., by setting a global <code>step_time</code>)? ''deferred on 2013-06-14''
* Enable the user to control the speed of execution (e.g., by setting a global <code>step_time</code>)?
** How to implement this? E.g., call a <code>wait(step_time)</code> function in between two steps?
