copied!<p>Well, searching around, it seems that this is the livewires website: <a href="http://www.livewires.org.uk/python/home" rel="nofollow">Livewires Home Page</a> where one can download their livewires package.</p> <p>Also, some code from this: <a href="http://docs.google.com/viewer?a=v&q=cache%3aZJ_gR284T4gJ%3amendel.informatics.indiana.edu/~yye/lab/teaching/fall2011-I210/CH11-game.ppt%20python%20old%20livewires%201.0&hl=en&gl=ca&pid=bl&srcid=ADGEESi_RxkDDp3D4RCDcmJss5zXXwccsbWuFzAJPPikP87WbvrO6YaTL7hwnuhSQIANCuuxD5IQmvegLHepBIlVnOYYz62abQUd5s3OzFzjbXOPLU61rQIgHlnnptYj0gxdl6Sce2CI&sig=AHIEtbQM5-j4ux2HLpcWTZY4Csr5voR2Ug" rel="nofollow">Chapter 11</a> looks like what he's posted here ("The Pizza Panic Game"). </p> <p>Downloading and unpacking livewires shows that there is indeed no <code>init</code> function in the games module (as the comments already mentioned). </p> <p>Either this book has non-working examples (doubtful, given the depth it explains this example with); or <strong>the livewires package has changed between when the book was written and now</strong> (much more likely). </p> <p>The livewires website has other examples on it which I think you'll have much more success with.<br> I'd recommend you ditch the book, since it's likely you'll keep running into roadblocks like this. A Google search will turn up a number of other free python tutorials which are more up-to-date, and will be easier to follow.</p> <p>This page has a few links for beginners: <a href="http://wiki.python.org/moin/BeginnersGuide/NonProgrammers" rel="nofollow">Beginners Guide</a></p>
