pygame.Rect around circle
Question:
I’m trying to make a pong game in pygame , but i can’t figure out how to but a ball circle , which i can create with pygame.draw.circle into a pygame.Rect object so i can use the colliderect function and manipulate the ball’s position.
For example, with rectangles, i can do something like this :
rect = pygame.Rect(255, 255, 100, 100)
pygame.draw.rect(screen, yellow, rect)
and then when i change the pygame.Rect object position , the drawing primitives position also changes. How can the same effect be achieved when i want to draw a circle, instead of a rectangle?
Thank you.

“pygame.draw.circle
Draw a circle around a point
pygame.draw.circle(Surface, color, pos, radius, width=0): return Rect“
If you do:
circleRect = pygame.draw.circle(windowSurface, (0,0,0), (10, 10), 5)
Pygame will give you the rectangle that the circle is in, and you can manipulate it.
I hope that helped, and best of luck to you.
something really cool-
pygame.draw.rect(screen, "red", pygame.Rect(100, 100, 100, 100),100, 100)
This draws a circle (NO CAP)
