new to python - trouble calling a function from another function

[Navkirat Singh]

I was looking at the code, I dont have much time to go through it, but I might have found a typo - yield (p.destination - self.currenteFloor) , I think it should be currentFloor.Maybe thats your problem. Will look into the code more later.

Regards,
Nav

For some reason, in my checkQueue function below, the call to self.goUp() is never executed. It is on the last line of code I pasted in. I can put print statements before and after the call and I have a print statement in goUp() itself.  Only the print statements before and after the call are executed. The one inside goUp() is never executed because goUp() never seems to be executed. How can that be? I don't get any errors when the script executes. Surely this isn't some limitation I'm encountering?
