In the previous recipes, we used the wxPython and PyGLet frameworks to display OpenGL. In this recipe, we will use pure Python and OpenGL to create a red rectangle that bounces within a window that has a blue background.
The examples in this recipe have been translated from the C programming language into Python using the OpenGL SuperBible Fourth Edition as a guide. While the Fourth Edition was published in the year 2007, the OpenGL examples still work and we can use them with Python.
