Martin O'Hanlon

From the book: "Adventures in Minecraft" written by David Whale and Martin O'Hanlon, Wiley, 2017 http://eu.wiley.com/WileyCDA/WileyTitle/productCd-1119439582.html

Description

This starter kit contains a folder called "MyAdventures" which contains all the Python libraries required to complete all the chapters in "Adventure in Minecraft".

It is highly recommended that you use the Starter Kit as is and follow the instructions in Adventure 1 - "Hello Minecraft World" to setup your computer.

The structure of the StarterKit is as follows:

  • AdventuresInMinecraft
    • MyAdventures : folder to save the minecraft programs too
      • mcpi : python api library distributed with Minecraft: Pi Edition and minecraftstuff libraries
      • anyio : python library which contains the library to control the 7 segment display
      • microbit : python library which contains the library to control the microbit
      • bitio.hex : the bitio microbit program which should be copied to the BBC micro:bit
