crashing out in a while loop python
- by Edward
How to solve this error? i want to pass the values from get_robotxya() and get_ballxya()
and use it in a loop but it seems that it will crash after awhile how do i fix this? i want to get the values whithout it crashing out of the while loop

globals()['client_socket'] = socket.socket(socket.AF_INET, socket.SOCK_STREAM)
client_socket.connect((HOST,PORT))

while True:
try:
client_socket.send("loc\n")

return ballx,bally
def get_robotxya():
update_coordinates()
robotx = int(COORDINATES[12])
roboty = int(COORDINATES[13])
angle = int(COORDINATES[14])
return robotx,roboty,angle
def print_ballxy(bx,by):
print bx
print by
def print_robotxya(rx,ry,a):
print rx
print ry
print a
def activate():
bx,by = get_ballxy()
rx,ry,a = get_robotxya()
print_ballxy(bx,by)
print_robotxya(rx,ry,a)
Thread(target=update_coordinates).start()
while True:
activate()
this is the error i get:
