Consider that each Bin (where the ball lands) can contain between 2 to 14 different winning outcomes. Each Bin() collects various Outcome()s, each Outcome() handles the amount won. Consider the '1' Bin, it contains the following winning Outcome()s: “1”, “Red”, “Odd”, “Low”, “Column 1”, “Dozen 1-12”, “Split 1-2”, “Split 1-4”, “Street 1-2-3”, “Corner 1-2-4-5”, “Five Bet”, “Line 1-2-3-4-5-6”, “00-0-1-2-3”, “Dozen 1”. All of these bets will payoff if the wheel spins a “1”.
I'm almost done with the Outcome() class (just writing the unittests for it), after that I'll tackle the Bin class, at which point I will definitely return for more questions. As I said before, thanks to everyone who answered. -- best regards, Robert S. _______________________________________________ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
