In this article, we will learn How to get the size of a PyGame Window.
Game programming is very rewarding nowadays and it can also be used in advertising and as a teaching tool too. Game development includes mathematics, logic, physics, AI, and much more and it can be amazingly fun. In python, game programming is done in pygame and it is one of the best modules for doing so.
Installation:
This library can be installed using the below command:
pip install pygame
Step-by-step Approach:
- Import pygame.
- Initialize pygame.
- Form a screen by using pygame.display.set_mode() method.
- Get size of formed screen by using screen.get_size() method.
- Quit pygame.
Below are some examples based on the above approach:
Example 1:
Python3
# import package pygameimport pygame# initialize pygamepygame.init()# Form screenscreen = pygame.display.set_mode()# get the default sizex, y = screen.get_size()# quit pygamepygame.display.quit()# view size (width x height)print(x, y) |
Output :
1536 864
Example 2:
Python3
# import package pygameimport pygame# initialize pygamepygame.init()# Form screenscreen = pygame.display.set_mode((500, 500))# get the sizex, y = screen.get_size()# quit pygamepygame.display.quit()# view size (width x height)print(x, y) |
Output :
500 500
