I am currently writing a slightly changed version of Conway's game of life and I am experiencing issues with the GUI.
When I delete line 63 (buttonPressed(canvas,newIMG,arNew,x,y)) everything works fine and the image in the canvas gets updated correctly, but if I add this line of code at the end of the buttonPressed function, the program is freezing.
I know it's a infinite loop when it's recalling itself without an ending, that's not the problem, my question is why is the code right after print("done") influencing the code before, shouldn't it just be executed in after an other?
Thank for your help guys!!!
