mouseaction.py

this is the most basic to learn python

#: c04:mouse:MouseAction.py

class MouseAction:
  def __init__(self, action): 
    self.action = action
  def __str__(self): return self.action 
  def __cmp__(self, other):
    return cmp(self.action, other.action)
  # Necessary when __cmp__ or __eq__ is defined
  # in order to make this class usable as a
  # dictionary key:
  def __hash__(self): 
    return hash(self.action)

# Static fields; an enumeration of instances:
MouseAction.appears = MouseAction("mouse appears")
MouseAction.runsAway = MouseAction("mouse runs away")
MouseAction.enters = MouseAction("mouse enters trap")
MouseAction.escapes = MouseAction("mouse escapes")
MouseAction.trapped = MouseAction("mouse trapped")
MouseAction.removed = MouseAction("mouse removed")
