Hello,
I am completely baffled by this action and would appreciate any help.
My problem is occurring within a class which is within a larger
program; if I need to post the entire program let me know and I will.
It's only about 250 lines so far. Anyways, I am using a list of lists
to store data in a GUI game called goMoku. It is kind of like a connect
five game, pretty simple. When a user clicks a certain square, this
line is called to store the "move":
self.boardarray[row][col] = self.currentPlayer
self.currentPlayer is either "White" or "Black" which are constants set
to 1 and 2, so that when, say, the black player clicks on row 2 column
4, self.boardarray[2][4] will be set to "2". Instead, the program is
setting multiple values within the list as 2. Here is an example
output, when I click on (0,0):
[[2, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0], [2, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0,
0, 0, 0, 0], [2, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0], etc.
The board is 13X13 and position 0 for each list in the list of lists is
being set to 2, while only position 0 in the first list should be
changed to 2. To check for errors, I've surrounded the statement by
print statements to see what's going on, like this:
print self.boardarray
print row,col,self.currentPlayer,self.boardarray[row][col]
self.boardarray[row][col] = self.currentPlayer
print self.boardarray
My output is:
[[0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0], [0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0,
0, 0, 0, 0], [0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0], etc.
0 0 2 0
[[2, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0], [2, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0,
0, 0, 0, 0], [2, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0], etc.
I do not understand what is going on. Everything is as expected except
that the extra positions are being assigned as "2". Can anyone suggest
what is going wrong?
Thanks,
Ben
