SWENG: Learning how to build Pong using PyGame and Computerphile

At this month's software engineering working group, we will be building a Pong game in Python using Pygame and chat about online resources we use to further our software engineering education..

NOTE: The originally scheduled presentation on Markdown has been postponed because Perry can't make it. We'll do it another month.

Lan just learned how to build a Pong game using Pygame, thanks to Computerphile (https://www.youtube.com/user/Computerphile). We will walk through the learning process together in real-time.

If you are interested in following along, please make sure you have a working Python 3 and Pygame installation on your computer. Make sure you test the install, as recommended by their Getting Started page.

NOTE: We will not be spending any time debugging Python or PyGame installs during the meeting, though you can ask for help in the chat.

You can also watch the 4-video Computerphile tutorial:
