TicTacToe and Minimax

I am a young programmer that is learning python and struggling to implement an AI (using minimax) to play TicTacToe. I started watching a tutorial online, but the tutorial was on JavaScript and thus couldn't solve my problem. I also had a look at this question ( Python minimax for tictactoe ), but it did not have any answers and the implementation was considerably different from mine.
EDIT: the code you will find below is an edit suggested by one of the answers (#water_ghosts).
EDIT #2: I deleted possiblePositions, as the AI should choose a free field and not a place from the possiblePositions (that wouldn't make it that smart while implementing minimax :) )
Now the code doesn't give out any errors at all and functions properly, but one small thing: the AI always chooses the next available field. For example in situations where i am i move away from winning, instead of blocking my win option, it chooses the next free spot.
If you're wondering what that elements dict is doing there: i just wanted to make sure the programm chose the best index...
Here is my code:
class TicTacToe:
def __init__(self):
self.board = [" ", " ", " ", " ", " ", " ", " ", " ", " "]
self.playerSymbol = ""
self.playerPosition = []
self.aiSymbol = ""
self.aiPosition = []

def choice(self):

self.playerSymbol = "X"
self.aiSymbol = "O"

self.playerSymbol = "O"
self.aiSymbol = "X"
def won(self):

for position in winningPositions:
if position.issubset(self.playerPosition):
self.winner = self.playerSymbol
print("Player Wins :)")
return True
elif position.issubset(self.aiPosition):
self.winner = self.aiSymbol
print("AI wins :(")
return True
if self.board.count(" ") == 0:

def play(self):

while not self.won():
if self.turn % 2 == 0:
pos = int(input("Where would you like to play? (0-8) "))
self.playerPosition.append(pos)
self.board[pos] = self.playerSymbol
self.turn += 1

I come from a java background and am not used to this :(
Any help would be highly appreciated
I am open to suggestions and ways to improve my code and fix this problem.
Thanks in advance and stay healthy,
Kristi

Change this part, your implementation will return optimalMove even if it doesn't go inside the if statement, and optimalMove will not be assigned at that point, so put the return inside.
if score > sampleScore:
sampleScore = score
optimalMove = i
return optimalMove

optimalMove = 0 in play() and optimalMove = i in findOptimalField() are declaring two distinct variables, each of which is local to the function declaring it.
If you want multiple functions to have access to the same variable, you can use the global keyword, but that's generally considered a bad practice. It can make it hard to reason about the code (e.g. is var = x creating a new local variable or overwriting the value of a global?) and it doesn't stop you from accidentally using a variable before it's declared.
Since you're coming from a Java background, you can turn this into a class to get behavior more like what you expect, eliminating the need for globals:
class TicTacToe:
def __init__(self):
self.board = [" ", " ", " ", " ", " ", " ", " ", " ", " "]
self.playerSymbol = ""
self.playerPosition = []
self.aiSymbol = ""
self.aiPosition = []
self.score = 0
self.playerSymbol = None
self.aiSymbol = None
...
def drawBoard(self):
print(self.board[0] + " | " + self.board[1] + " | " + self.board[2])
...
def choice(self):
answer = input("What do you want to play as? (type x or o) ")
if answer.upper() == "X":
self.playerSymbol = "X"
self.aiSymbol = "O"
...
Each method now takes an explicit self argument that refers to the current instance, and you can use this to access any variables that belong to the class instance instead of a particular method. If you don't include self. before a variable, that variable will still be local to the method that declares it. In this case, the drawBoard() method won't be able to access the answer variable defined in choice().
You can create new self. variables in any of the class's methods, but the best practice is to initialize all of them in the __init__ constructor method, using None as a placeholder for variables that don't have a value yet.

I am posting this as an answer, just in case somebody in the future stumbles upon the same problem :)
the main issue i encountered (besides my bad programming style) is that i forgot to update the contents the lists playerPosition and aiPosition.
You can review the rest of the changes in the working code:

self.board = [" ", " ", " ", " ", " ", " ", " ", " ", " "]

Python skipping elif statement

I'm trying to write a program that prints the values and keys in a dictionary depending of the input the user types. The problem appears when the elif statement on line 11 gets skipped. It doesn't matter if the if statement is false, the elif statement gets skipped. I'm learning so I don't really know where my error is. Thanks for the help!
areaM = {str(1) + " acre" : str(160) + " sq rods"}
linearM = {str(1) + " ft" : str(12) + " in", str(1) + " yd": str(3) + " ft"}
def displayConversion(conv):
for k, v in conv.items():
print(str(v) + " = " + str(k))
while True:
print("Enter a conversion")
if input() == "Area Meassure":
displayConversion(areaM)
elif input() == "Linear Meassure":
displayConversion(linearM)
else:
print("Conversion not available")

Maybe this as the full code (too much inputss):
areaM = {str(1) + " acre" : str(160) + " sq rods"}
linearM = {str(1) + " ft" : str(12) + " in", str(1) + " yd": str(3) + " ft"}
def displayConversion(conv):
for k, v in conv.items():
print(str(v) + " = " + str(k))
while True:
a=input("Enter a conversion\n")
if a == "Area Meassure":
displayConversion(areaM)
break
elif a == "Linear Meassure":
displayConversion(linearM)
break
else:
print("Conversion not available")

Tic-Tac-Toe Game

I've wrote a code for the Tic-Tac-Toe game.
Here's what the code does:
Gets the name of Player 1.
Gets the name of Player 2.
Asks if the Player 1 wants X or O.
If he chooses X then Player 2 gets O and vice versa.
Prints the empty board.
Asks both players to enter the row and column one by one and prints the updated board.
If a player doesn't repeat previous player's spot, everything works fine until the end without any problem.
If a player repeats previous player's spot, a message is displayed saying that the previous player has already taken this spot and makes him guess again.
Now, after this point, if I guess any index other than the one that the previous player has already taken, it overwrites the previous players spot.
Screenshot of the terminal when this occurs:
I'm certain that the problem is in the function enterguess(turncount), but haven't been able to spot it yet. Any idea where the problem is?

The issue you have is that although you recall enterguess, you don't return it. So it simply keeps recalling enterguess until a valid input is given, then it just ignores all this and goes to the final return statement which still has the malformed guess.
Add return statements:
def enterguess(turncount):
def guess(name):
return (int(input("\n" + players[name] + ", Enter row number: ")),
int(input(players[name] + ", Enter column number: ")))
if turncount % 2 == 0:

continued trouble with classes in python 3.2

In the below code, it is working at first but when I want it to tell me what card number the dealer has it is returning some sort encrypted stuff that I don't understand.
[<__main__.Card object at 0x025A4E50>]
How do I get this to return the corresponding card number?
Also someone said that I may need to use __eq__ when comparing things as opposed to the way that I currently am could someone explain why, and also how to use __eq__ ?

Print the card instead of the list of card objects and give the card a decent __str__ method to display itself human-readable. Instead of
print(self.player.hand)
try this:
for card in self.player.hand:
print(card)
and in class Card insert this:
def __str__(self):
return '%s%s' % (self.number, self.suit)
Concerning your question about the __eq__: An objects __eq__() method gets called whenever it gets compared for equality using the == operator. Without such a method, two objects are only equal if they are the same object. So in your cards you might want to have sth like this:
def __eq__(self, other):
return self.number == other.number and self.suit == other.suit

When you use str() on a Card object it calls an inherited __str__ method which will print out the class name and address of the object. What you call encrypted is the address of the object. If you want to print out something different, override the __str__ method in your class. For example:
class Card(object):
def __str__(self):
return "Card " + self.suit + " " + self.number

Recording a win or loss in a game of craps

So I have to create a game of craps that takes into account bets for an assignment. So far, my code works in that the dice rolls are correct and other little tidbits the assignment called for. But now I don't know how to record each game as a win / lose for the player or computer so that the pot can be added to the winner's money. I realize that my code is half doe, isn't finished, and doesn't run as is, but I just seriously need some help from someone. Please and thank you. Here are more specific directions on my assignment:

print("Welcome to Sky Masterson's Craps Game")
handle_commands()

"""
playerInitial = 500
compInitial = 500
MENU = "How much would you like to bet?: "
while True:
bet = float(input(MENU))
if bet <= playerInitial:
human_game()
elif bet > playerInitial:
print("Sorry, you can't bet more than you have")
def handle_commands2():
MENU2 = "Would you like to play again? (y or n): "
while True:

if response=="y":
counter = counter + multipleGames()

Use classes:
import random
class Human:
def __init__(self):
self.name = 'Human'
self.wins = []
self.losses = []
self.bets = []
self.total = 0
class Computer:
def __init__(self):
self.name = 'Computer'
self.wins = []
self.losses = []
self.bets = []
self.total = 0
class Game:
def __init__(self):
self.rolls = []
self.currentPlayer = None
def roll(self):
self.rolls.append(random.randint(1, 6))
if __name__ == '__main__':
human = Human()
computer = Computer()
game = Game()
game.roll()
print games.rolls
I won't code all of it for you, but using classes will make things much simpler.
