The game does not work in its current form, which may be some cause for confusion. :-) In designing the program, I took the object oriented route. Why? When I started to design the game, I imagined two characters (a human and a computer) playing against each other. Each character has similar attributes, i.e. points and a choice, and behavoir. They play. The behavoir is implemented differently for each character because how a computer makes a decision is different from how a human makes a decision. After the characters decide which object to pick, a function called compare_objects compares the objects and uses logic to determine the winner. After the winner is picked, points are incremented and play continues until one character reaches a set number of points. The two problem areas are the compare_objects function and the while loop. They don't work. (At least, not well.) However, I have gotten several useful tips from tutors, so I will be making a lot of progress next week! -Chris _______________________________________________ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
