I want to have the game loop through player and enemy turns until either the player is dead or the enemy. It reaches the first IF in level_1_enemy and prints "test", but does not continue to the next if statement even though the condition "weapon == 1" is true.
The last while loop is meant to repeat the level_1_enemy and level_1_player functions. It does do both but will also not stop looping once the guard or player is dead.

Blackjack Capstone Project from 100 Days of Code with Dr. Angela Yu

This question is in relation to Dr Angela Yu's 11th day of Python tutorials. I am not able to execute the code I typed in. The code is typed in replit. Where am I making mistakes? This code is supposed to play the game of Blackjack.
import random
from replit import clear
from art import logo
def draw_card():
cards = [11, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 10, 10, 10]
return random.choice(cards)
def calculate_score(cards):
if sum(cards) == 21 and len(cards) == 2:
return 0
if sum(cards) > 21 and 11 in cards:
cards.remove(11)
cards.append(1)
return sum(cards)
def compare(user_score, computer_score):
if user_score > 21 and computer_score > 21:
print("You went over 21. You lost")
elif computer_score == 0:
print("You lost. Computer has blackjack")
elif user_score == 0:
print("You won with a blackjack.")
elif user_score == computer_score:
print("Draw")
elif user_score > 21:
print("You lost")
elif computer_score > 21:
print("you won")
elif user_score > computer_score:
print("You won.")
else:
print("Computer won")
def play_game():
print (logo)
user_cards = []
computer_cards = []
for number in range(2):
user_cards.append(draw_card())
computer_cards.append(draw_card())
game_end = False
while not game_end:
user_score = calculate_score(user_cards)
computer_score = calculate_score(computer_cards)
print(f" Your cards: {user_cards}, your score: {user_score}.")
print(f" Computer's first card: {computer_cards[0]}")
get_card = input("Type 'y' to get another card, type 'n' to pass: ")
if get_card == "y".lower():
user_cards.append(draw_card())
else:
game_end = True
while computer_score < 17:
computer_cards.append(draw_card)
print(f" Your final hand: {user_cards}, final score: {user_score}")
print(f" Computer's final hand: {computer_cards}, final score: {computer_score}")
print(compare(user_score, computer_score))
play = input("Do you want to play a game of blackjack. Type y or n: ").lower()
while play == "y":
clear()
play_game()
I am not able to debug this code in thonny due to some functions I can only find in replit.

You never recompute computer_score, so computer_score < 17 will stay True forever.

There are bugs in your code.Here are the solutions.
Do this:
#The main bug is that the program gets stuck at while loop in around lineNO 62 where it says "while computer_score < 17:"
#I could solve it for you but i don't know the game, so do something there.
#My suggestion: use if statement instead of while loop.

why doesn't "break" stop a while loop (Python) [duplicate]

This question already has answers here:
Why does "a == x or y or z" always evaluate to True? How can I compare "a" to all of those?
(8 answers)
Closed last year.
So I was doing a blackjack program. Everything was working until I got this:
Your cards: [2, 4]
Total: 6
Chose your next move: stand
Dealer's cards: [5]
Your cards: [2, 4, 10]
Total: 16
Chose your next move: stand
//////////////////////////
Dealer's cards: [5]
Your cards: [2, 4, 10, 10]
Total: 26
//////////////////////////
The loop is supposed to break when move == stand I think it's the break function, but there is a high chance I messed something else up.
Here's the bit of code I think is messing up:
while player_cards_total < 21:
player_cards_total = sum(player_cards)
dealer_cards_total = sum(dealer_cards)
if player_cards_total > 20:
print('\n\n//////////////////////////\nDealer\'s cards: ', dealer_cards)
print('Your cards: ', player_cards,'\nTotal: ', player_cards_total, '\n//////////////////////////')
print('\nBUST\n')
break
move = get_move()
if move == 'hit':
player_cards.append(get_card())
else:
break
The while loop is an individual loop, and not a inner loop
Here's the whole code
import time
Ace = 11
Jack = 10
Queen = 10
King = 10
cards = [Ace, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, Jack, Queen, King]
Ace_21 = False
player_bal = 0
dealer_bal = 0
player_cards = []
dealer_cards = []
player_cards_total = 0
dealer_cards_total = 0
card = ''
move = ''
moves = 0
def get_card():
return(int(cards[random.randrange(1, 13)]))
dealer_cards = [get_card(),]
player_cards = [get_card(), get_card()]
player_cards_total = sum(player_cards)
def get_move():
if moves == 0:
print('\nDealer\'s cards: ', dealer_cards)
print('Your cards: ', player_cards,'\nTotal: ', player_cards_total)
move = input('Chose your next move: ')
if move == 'h' or 'Hit':
move = 'hit'
elif move == 's' or 'Stand':
move = 'stand'
return(move)
while player_cards_total < 21:
player_cards_total = sum(player_cards)
dealer_cards_total = sum(dealer_cards)
if player_cards_total > 20:
print('\n\n//////////////////////////\nDealer\'s cards: ', dealer_cards)
print('Your cards: ', player_cards,'\nTotal: ', player_cards_total, '\n//////////////////////////')
print('\nBUST\n')
break
move = get_move()
if move == 'hit':
player_cards.append(get_card())
else:
break
if player_cards_total > 21:
print('You lose!!!')
elif player_cards_total == 21:
print('Great job, you win')
else:
print('DEALER\'S TURN')
while dealer_cards_total < 20:
dealer_cards_total = sum(dealer_cards)

get_move always returns 'hit', so the break can never run. This is caused by a logic error.
You need to change the following lines:
if move == 'h' or 'Hit':
#and
elif move == 's' or 'Stand':
Now to the right of "or" is a non-empty string so these if's will always be True.
Instead you need:
if move == 'h' or move == 'Hit':
#and
elif move == 's' or move == 'Stand':
This will actually test of move is equal to either string separately as you intended. Furthermore, you could also use this convention if you would like:
if move in ['h', 'Hit']:
#and
elif move in ['s', 'Stand']:

Need assistance on blackjack python project implementing hit/stand feature

im just working on a blackjack project and im new to coding so its a little tough trying to add new functions such as the hit/stand function. I have tried making a hit/stand function but im not sure how to actually add a new card to the total of the players cards and the dealer also. im just staring by adding the players to try and get some result but a am just stuck at this rate and have no idea how i can properly implement this.

Maybe this will get you on the right track (I couldn't find a 'hit' function defined, so you can do all the work right in hit_stand, as follows):
def hit_stand(show_hand,player_hand):
while True:
x = input("Would you like to Hit or Stand? Enter 'h' or 's'")
if x[0].lower() == 'h':
player_hand.append(playing_cards.deal_one_card())
elif x[0].lower() == 's':
print("Player stands. Dealer is playing.")
playing = False
That will solve how the player hits, but I didn't see logic in your code for the dealer to decide to hit or stand, which are based on standard house rules.

Blackjack, won't restart game in python

Right now I'm having trouble with the code restarting. It restarts but it doesn't go back to the beginning. It just keeps asking me if I want to restart.
For example it says
The player has cards [number, number, number, number, number] with a total value of (whatever the numbers add up too.)
--> Player is busted!
Start over? Y/N
I type in Y and it keeps saying
The player has cards [number, number, number, number, number] with a total value of (whatever the numbers add up too.)
--> Player is busted!
Start over? Y/N
Can anyone please fix it so that it will restart. - or tell me how to my code is below.

fun little game, I removed the second dealer for simplicity, but it should be easy enough to add back in. I changed input to raw_input so you could get a string out of it without entering quotes. touched up the logic a bit here and there, redid formating and added comments.
