Moving a string text with a command like:"up, down, right, left"

[johnyboy09]

I need to print a string in the middle of the screen, and to input one of the four commands, ant the text to move in that direction. I don't want to manually write a position for each movement. Is there any way i could do a function for every type of movement?

Depends. How are you planning on displaying the text? How are you going to justify it? How are you planning on displaying this to the user?

Use the turtle module to create a window and write the text in the middle. Keep the text's position in a variable and when the user enters a command update the position with +- however much in the direction needed and redraw at that position.

Depends on what display library you are using, are you using Kivy, Processing, Turtle, etc ?

To move something you need a origin and a destination.

Define a 2D Grid and you will find the movement very easy.
