The part of the script that is causing the problem is as follows:def point(num): while True: raw_input("Roll") uno, dos = random.choice(dice), random.choice(dice) three = uno+dos print "{0} + {1} = {2}".format(uno, dos, three) print "Point is {0}. You scored {1}.".format(num, three) if three == num: return "win" if three == 7: return "lose" else: print "Try again." What I have tried to do is - simulate dice throws, if the total is the same as originally thrown, return from the function(this works). If I throw a 7, I also want to return(this does not work as you can see from this sample output:
I'm pretty sure that your problem is not in the code snippet you have shown us. Here it works as expected (I've copied your code, added "import random" and "dice = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6]" at the top and saved as "dice.py"):

You scored 9. Try again. Roll 4 + 3 = 7 Point is 1. You scored 7. 'lose' >>> Please show us the part where you use the "point" function.
