# myMinesweeper_Tkinter
A simple 10x10 Minesweeper game
Python version: 3.8.7
TkInter is used to create the graphical user interface
## Sample:

## Minesweeper rules
The rules of the game are fairly simple. Uncover tiles and use indicators to avoid mines. To win, uncover all tiles that do not have mines. The numbered indicators represent the amount of mines in the adjacent tiles.
## How to play
* Left-click: tile to reveal tile.
* Right-click: to flag mine locations.
## Process:
1. Create a tkinter window.
```python
import tkinter as tk
root = tk.Tk() # Creates tkinter window
root.mainloop() # Runs window
```
2. Create tkinter labels and arrange them using grid() (I accomplished this by using a nested while loop).
Note: Be sure to save labels where the can be accessed later.
```python
tiles = []
rows = 10
cols = 10
x = 0
# A nested loop creates 2 dimensional array or a grid
while x < cols:
y = 0
tile = []
# creates tiles by rows
while y < rows:
# Labels serve as tiles for the game
tile.append(tk.Label(text="", bg="green", height="2", width="4", borderwidth=5, relief="raised"))
tile[y].bind("", left_click)
tile[y].bind("", right_click)
tile[y].grid(row=x, column=y)
y += 1
# adds the created row of row of labels to the tiles[]
tiles.append(tile)
x += 1
```
3. Bind left-click and right-click event functions to each label.
Left-click reveals() tile and adjacent tiles.
Right-click sets flags tile.
```python
def right_click(event):
if not is_game_over:
column = event.widget.grid_info()["column"]
row = event.widget.grid_info()["row"]
if[row,column] not in revealed:
event.widget.config(text="X")
def left_click(event):
if not is_game_over:
column = event.widget.grid_info()["column"]
row = event.widget.grid_info()["row"]
reveal(row, column)
if len(revealed) == to_win:
you_win()
```
4. Using random number generator, get x and y locations to place mines.
```python
from random import randrange
def set_bombs():
bomb_tiles = []
bombs_planted = 0
num_of_bombs = 10
# Will set 10 mines on playing field in random locations
while bombs_planted < num_of_bombs:
# randrange(10): randomly generates a integer between 0 and 9 to be used for location of mines
row = randrange(10)
col = randrange(10)
# If statement checks if mine is already placed in a location already
if [row, col] not in bomb_tiles:
bomb_tiles.append([row, col])
bombs_planted += 1
```
5. Create a function to check adjacent tiles.
```python
# Takes location of a tile and applies function to all adjacent tiles
def check_adjacent_tiles(row, column, func):
r = row
c = column
if row == 0 and column == 0:
func(row, column + 1)
func(row + 1, column)
func(row + 1, column + 1)
elif row == 9 and column == 9:
func(row - 1, column)
func(row - 1, column - 1)
func(row, column - 1)
elif row == 0 and column == 9:
func(row, column - 1)
func(row + 1, column - 1)
func(row + 1, column)
elif row == 9 and column == 0:
func(row - 1, column)
func(row - 1, column + 1)
func(row, column + 1)
elif row == 0:
func(row, column - 1)
func(row, column + 1)
func(row + 1, column - 1)
func(row + 1, column)
func(row + 1, column + 1)
elif row == 9:
func(row - 1, column)
func(row - 1, column - 1)
func(row - 1, column + 1)
func(row, column - 1)
func(row, column + 1)
elif column == 0:
func(row - 1, column)
func(row - 1, column + 1)
func(row, column + 1)
func(row + 1, column)
func(row + 1, column + 1)
elif column == 9:
func(row - 1, column)
func(row - 1, column - 1)
func(row, column - 1)
func(row + 1, column - 1)
func(row + 1, column)
else:
func(row - 1, column)
func(row - 1, column - 1)
func(row - 1, column + 1)
func(row, column - 1)
func(row, column + 1)
func(row + 1, column - 1)
func(row + 1, column)
func(row + 1, column + 1)
```
6. Create function to set indicators for bomb locations when tile is revealed.
```python
indicators = []
def set_indicators():
for bomb in bomb_tiles:
# using method to check adjacent tiles the uses the get_idicators() function to add them to the indicators list.
check_adjacent_tiles(bomb[0], bomb[1], get_indicators)
def get_indicators(row, column):
# Make sure not to set indicators on top of a mine
if [row, column] not in bomb_tiles:
indicators.append([row, column])
```
7. Finally, create actions for when the game is Win and Lose.
```python
def game_over():
is_game_over = True
for bomb in bomb_tiles:
tiles[bomb[0]][bomb[1]].config(bg="red")
# new_game() is a function that makes a pop-up window that asks if you would like to try again
new_game(window, "Game Over")
def you_win():
new_game(window, "YOU WIN!")
```
