INTRODUCTION
1.1 Overview
Flappy Bird is a Pc Game. The game was released in may 2013 but received a sudden rise in popularity in early 2014.Flappy Bird
received poor reviews from some critics, who criticized its level of difficult, alleged plagiarism in graphics and game
mechanics, while other reviewers found it addictive. He claims that he felt guilt over what he considered to be its additive
nature and overuse. Bay Tek Games also released a licensed coin operated Flappy Bird are Arcade Game.

1.2 SCOPE OF FLAPPY BIRD

The game is a side-Scroller where the player control a bird, attempting to fly between rows of green pipes without coming into
contact them. If the player touches the pipe, it ends the game. The bird briefly flaps upward each time the player tabs the
screen; if the screen is not tapped, the bird falls due to gravity.

2 History of Flappy Bird

Flappy Bird game is developed by Vietnamese video game artist and programmer Dong Nguyen under his game development
company dotGears.
Nguyen created the game over the period of several days, using a bird protagonist that he had designed for a
cancelled game in 2012.

2.1 Software Requirement

 Memory:512MB
 Graphics Card: NVIDIA GeForce7200GS
 A Flappy Bird in File :100MB
 OS: Window XP, 7 8,10

2.2 GAME PLAY

Flappy Bird is a arcade-style game which the player controls the bird faby, Which moves persistently to the right. The player is
tasked with navigating Faby through pairs of pipes that have equally sized gaps placed at random height. Fabs automatically
descends and only ascends when the player tabs the space button on the keyboard. Each successful pass through a pair of
pipes awards the player one point. Colliding with a pipe or the ground ends the gameplay. During the game over screen, the
player is awarded a bronze medal if they reaches ten or more point, a silver medal from twenty points. A gold medal from thirty
points, and a platinum medal from forty point .
 2.3 DEVELOPMENT

He discovered video games by playing super Mario bros as a child, and began coding his own at age 16 act 19, while studying
programming at a local university, he won an internship. At the one of the video game companies in Vietnam. While using the
PC, he found that its most popular games such as Angry Bird were too complicated, and wanted to make a simpler game for
people who are always on the move.

The gameplay was inspired by the act of bouncing a ping pong ball against a paddle for as possible. Initially the game
was significantly easier than it became in the final version however said he found this version to be boring and subsequently
tightened up the difficult.

It’s a games as “heavily influenced by retro pixelated games in its golden age. Everything is pure, extremely hard and
incredibly fun to play”.

3 PYTHON
3.1 Overview

Python is a high-level, easy to learn, interpreter, interactive and object-oriented scripting language. Python is a designed to be
highly readable. It uses English keywords frequently where as other language use punctuation, and it has fewer syntactical
construction than other languages.

3.2 History of Python

Python was developed by GUIDO VAN ROSSUM in the late eighties and early nineties at the National Research Institute for
Mathematics and Computer Science in the Netherlands.
Python is derived from many other language, including ABC, module-3, C,C++ ,Anglo-68, SmallTalk, and Unix shell and
other scripting language.

3.3 DECISION MAKING

Decision in a program are used when the program has condition choices to execute code block.. let’s taken an example of
traffic light, where different color of lights lit up at different situations based on the condition of the road or any specific rule.
 Statement Description
If Statement It consists of a Boolean expression which result is either TRUE or FALSE followed by one or more statement

If else Statement It also contain a Boolean Expression. The if statement is followed by an optional else statement & if the
expression result in FALSE, then else statement gets executed. It is also called alternative execution in which
there are two possibilities of the condition determine in which any one of them will get executed.
Nested We can implement if statement and or if-else statement inside another if or if –else statement. Here more
than one if condition are applied & there can be more than one if within elif.
It is the prediction of conditions that occur while executing a program to specify action. Multiple expressions get
evaluated with an outcome of either TRUE or FALSE. These are logical decisions, and Python also provides decision-making
statement that to make decision within a program for an application based on the user requirement.

Loops Description

For Loops Executes a sequence of statement multiple times and abbreviates the code that manages the loop
variable

While Loops Repeats a statement or group of statement while a given condition is TRUE. It test the condition
before executing the loop body

Nested Loops You can one or more loop inside any another while, for or do.. while loop.
 3.2.1 LOOP CONTRTOL STATEMENT

Loop control statement change execution from its normal sequence. When execution leaves a scope, all automatic
objects that were created in that scope are destroyed.

LOOP CONTROL Description

STATEMENT
Break Statement Terminates the loop statement and transfer execution immediately following the
loop.

Continue Statement Causes the loop to skip the remainder of its body and immediately retest its
condition prior to reiterating.

Pass Statement The pass statement in python is used when a statement is required syntactically
but you do not want any command or code to execute.

3.3 PYTHON DATA TYPE

3.3.1 Number

Number is data type of the python. When they are store in numeric value in python. They are immutable data types,
means that changing the value of a number data type result in a newly allocated object.
There are different numerical type:-
 Int(Signed Integer)- They are often called just integer or ints, are positive or negative whole
number with no decimal point.
 Long(Long Integer)- Also called longs, they are integer of unlimited size, written like integers and
followed by an uppercase or lowercase L.
 Float(Floating Point Real Value)- Also called floats, they represent real number and are
written with a decimal point dividing the integers and fractional parts. Floats may also be in scientific notation,
with E or e indicating the power.
 Complex(Complex Number)- Are of the form a + bJ, where a and b are floats and J (or j)
represents the square root of -1 (which is an imaginary number). The real part of the number is a, and the
imaginary part is b. Complex number are not used much in python programming.

 3.3.2 String

String are amongst the most popular types in python. We can create
them simply by enclosing characters in quotes. Python treats single quotes the same as double quotes. Creating strings
is as simple as assigning a value to a variable.

3.3.2.1 Accessing Values in Strings

Python does not support a character type; these are treated as strings of length one, thus also considered a substring.

3.3.2.2Updating Strings
You can "update" an existing string by (re)assigning a variable to another string. The new value can be related to its
previous value or to a completely different string altogether.

3.3.2.3 String Special Operators

Operator Description Example

+ Concatenation - Adds values on either side of the operator a + b will give HelloPython

* Repetition - Creates new strings, concatenating multiple copies of the same a*2 will give -HelloHello
string

[] Slice - Gives the character from the given index a[1] will give e

[:] Range Slice - Gives the characters from the given range a[1:4] will give ell

in Membership - Returns true if a character exists in the given string H in a will give 1
not in Membership - Returns true if a character does not exist in the given string M not in a will give 1

r/R Raw String - Suppresses actual meaning of Escape characters. The syntax for print r'\n' prints \n and print
raw strings is exactly the same as for normal strings with the exception of the R'\n'prints \n
raw string operator, the letter "r," which precedes the quotation marks. The "r"
can be lowercase (r) or uppercase (R) and must be placed immediately
preceding the first quote mark.

% Format - Performs String formatting See at next section

3.3.3 Python List

The list is a most versatile datatype available in Python which can be written as a list of comma-separated values
(items) between square brackets. Important thing about a list is that items in a list need not be of the same type .

3.3.3.1Basic List Operations

Lists respond to the + and * operators much like strings; they mean concatenation and repetition here too, except that
the result is a new list, not a string.

Python Expression Results Description

len([1, 2, 3]) 3 Length

[1, 2, 3] + [4, 5, 6] [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6] Concatenation

['Hi!'] * 4 ['Hi!', 'Hi!', 'Hi!', 'Hi!'] Repetition

3 in [1, 2, 3] True Membership

 for x in [1, 2, 3]: print x, 123 Iteration

Compares elements of both lists.

2 len(list)
Gives the total length of the list.

3 max(list)
Returns item from the list with max value.

4 min(list)
Returns item from the list with min value.

5 list(seq)
Converts a tuple into list.

Sr. No. Methods with Description

1 list.append(obj)
 Appends object obj to list

2 list.count(obj)

5 list.insert(index, obj)
Inserts object obj into list at offset index

6 list.pop(obj=list[-1])
Removes and returns last object or obj from list

7 list.remove(obj)
Removes object obj from list

8 list.reverse()
Reverses objects of list in place

9 list.sort([func])
Sorts objects of list, use compare func if given

3.3.4 TUPLE

A tuple is a collection of objects which ordered and immutable. Tuples are sequences, just like lists. The differences
between tuples and lists are, the tuples cannot be changed unlike lists and tuples use parentheses, whereas lists
use square brackets.
 3.3.4.1 Basic Tuples Operations
Tuples respond to the + and * operators much like strings; they mean concatenation and repetition here too, except
that the result is a new tuple, not a string.

Python Expression Results Description

len((1, 2, 3)) 3 Length

(1, 2, 3) + (4, 5, 6) (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6) Concatenation

('Hi!',) * 4 ('Hi!', 'Hi!', 'Hi!', 'Hi!') Repetition

3 in (1, 2, 3) True Membership

for x in (1, 2, 3): print x, 123 Iteration

3.3.4.2Built-in Tuple Functions

Sr. No. Function with Description

1 cmp(tuple1, tuple2)

Compares elements of both tuples.

2 len(tuple)
Gives the total length of the tuple.

3 max(tuple)
 Returns item from the tuple with max value.

4 min(tuple)
Returns item from the tuple with min value.

5 tuple(seq)
Converts a list into tuple.

3.3.5 Dictionary

Each key is separated from its value by a colon (:), the items are separated by commas, and the whole thing is enclosed
in curly braces. An empty dictionary without any items is written with just two curly braces, like this: {}.
Keys are unique within a dictionary while values may not be. The values of a dictionary can be of any type, but the
keys must be of an immutable data type such as strings, numbers, or tuples.

3.3.6 Built-in Dictionary Functions & Methods

Sr. No. Function with Description

cmp(dict1, dict2)

Compares elements of both dict.

2 len(dict)
Gives the total length of the dictionary. This would be equal to the number of items in the dictionary.
3 str(dict)
Produces a printable string representation of a dictionary

4 type(variable)
Returns the type of the passed variable. If passed variable is dictionary, then it would return a dictionary
type.
