12. Creating Particles

Creating Particles

Question:

Start Quiz:

# Now we want to create particles,
# p[i] = robot(). In this assignment, write
# code that will assign 1000 such particles
# to a list.
#
# Your program should print out the length
# of your list (don't cheat by making an
# arbitrary list of 1000 elements!)
#
# Don't modify the code below. Please enter
# your code at the bottom.
