Array and rectangles

[deanhystad]

You do not need a multi-dimensional array. You need to write a function that will tell you if x, y is part of a rectangle.

To do this you need a data structure that can store your rectangle. The code below saves rectangle information in a dictionary. You could also use a list or a tuple or a class:

line = input('Input rectangle coordinates x1 y1 x2 y2 pixel:')
v = line.split()
rect = {'x1':v[0], 'y1':v[1], 'x2':v[2], 'x3':v[3], 'pixel':v[4]}

You need to support having multiple rectangles, so you will have to store all the rectangles in a list.

A good next step is modifying your program so you can enter multiple rectangles and save them all in a list. Print out the list to verify the information was saved correctly.
