X

     So, last time, we created a Pygame program. Uh, but it's just a black screen. And it stays open for a mere second. Not even the X button works. So, today we're trying to get X to work. How does that work? Let's just find out.
     A standard module of Python known as sys is our key. A function from sys is sys.exit(). "No questions asked. Just close the window." So, this is how we're going to use it.

import pygame, sys
pygame.init()
screen=pygame.display.set_mode([640, 480])
while True:
    for event in pygame.event.get():
        if event.type == pygame.QUIT:
            sys.exit()

     Wow, just getting a black screen to be able to close takes a lot of code. So, not only did we do that, but now we can drag the screen around without having it crash! But, well, it will crash if you hit the X button. Man, that icon is hard to work with!

     Oh well... Next time, we're getting into the gooder--I mean better--stuff. We're going to do graphics.
