This is a bit of a follow-up question to my post here. I’m now attempting to replicate the same general code using Connect Four (7×6 grid instead of 3×3).
However, when I pass a Dynamic value to my createBox function, it seems to use values such as board$ 3379[[1,6]] instead of using the actual board variable. I believe this relates to the RuleDelayed issue described here but using With doesn’t seem to help.
When I remove the Dynamic function before board[[x,y]] it works as intended.
createBox[elem_] := Module[{},
Print@elem;
Graphics[
{{White, Rectangle[]}
, Switch[elem
, "A", {Red, Disk[{0.5, 0.5}, 0.4]}
, "B", {Blue, Disk[{0.5, 0.5}, 0.4]}
, " ", {Thick, Circle[{0.5, 0.5}, 0.4]}
, _, {}
]
}, ImageSize -> 50, Frame -> True, FrameStyle -> Thickness[.02],
FrameTicks -> None
]
];
CreateDialog[
DynamicModule[
{board = ConstantArray[" ", {7, 6}], player = "A"},
Grid[
Table[
With[{y = y, x = x}
, EventHandler[
createBox[Dynamic@board[[x, y]]]
, {"MouseClicked" :> (
If[board[[y, x]] === " ",
board[[x, y]] = "A";
];
)}
]]
, {y, Length@board[[1]], 1, -1}, {x, Length@board}
], Spacings -> {0, 0}
]
], WindowTitle -> "Connect Four", WindowSize -> All
];
Is there a better way to structure this?
This is especially true in healthcare. When chatbots are offering therapeutic services, they must be properly designed, vetted, and tested to maintain patient safety.
However, when made right, the batteries are safe. It’s just that they’ve traditionally been too expensive for large-scale uses such as renewable power storage. But battery innovations such as Tesla’s could radically change how we power the economy. According to a study that appeared this year in Nature, the continued drop in the cost of battery storage has made renewable energy price-competitive with traditional fossil fuels.
Businesses need to be aware of the wider trend toward real-time, automated censorship and how it might be used in both commercial and governmental settings. These tools can easily be used in countries with unstable political dynamics and could become a real concern for businesses that operate across borders. Businesses must learn to educate and protect employees when technology can censor and punish in real time.
A never-ending flow of content that is interesting without being repetitive is harder to resist. With users glued to online services, addiction and other behavioral problems occur to an unhealthy degree. According to a 2016 poll by nonprofit research company Common Sense Media, 50% of American teenagers believe they are addicted to their smartphones.
