What does ”event.pos[0]” mean in the pygame library? I saw an example using it to get the X axis of the cursor and ignore the Y axis
I don’t understand how it works. I don’t know if I understood the purpose of this function wrong. I tried to search what posx=event.pos[0] means but all I found was that if you want to take x, write the code of posx,posy=pygame.mouse.get_pos() and then take posx. But I still can’t understand…

How does Pygame know what is layer 1 (background) vs the sprites displayed on the screen?
My teacher was looking over my code today and wanted me to explain to him why I could use and pygame knew to make the bg.png file the background and the player/enemy.png in the foreground.

How can a busy-wait loop be avoided for an event driven program?
I’m coding a chess game in python using pygame. One of the common tasks is the need to handle events, and the only way I know how to do it is like this: The while loop just keeps spinning, which is inefficient. In embedded programming, you can send the cpu to sleep until there is an interrupt. Is there …
