I just started learning python and this really helped me understand statements and functions

[@shinkansen1907]

Hi Kylie, these projects really helping me a lot! You are the big champ!

[@paraglide01]

Thank you very much, I learned a lot. The "return (0,user,computer)" statement was an eye opener for me. I can see the potential in this.

Ah my first program (i skipped hello world)

lmao you said tic tac toe at 8:07, i'm only pointing this out because i was making a rock paper scissors game as well mine is much more basic compared to this one and i kept referring to it as tic tac toe instead of rock paper scissors, good video tho its nice to see other iterations of the same game

[@KylieYYing]

Hahaha yeah I keep getting them mixed up even though they’re totally different

[@HTWwpzIuqaObMt]

Instead of using random to select a random move, i thought of a strategy that the ai can follow to win. If we have a triangle with rock on top at bottom right the paper and at bottom left the scissors, if we lose from rock we can play the next move on the triangle which is paper and we won! Same for every other move. We can use the random lib to select a first move.

[@Kaori--]

3:53 uhmm, I would like to ask about running the script, how did you do that?

[@Raj_2904]

import random option = ['rock', 'paper', 'sci'] n = 0 m = 0 print ("Welcome to Rock-Paper-Scissor!") while n

[@Raj_2904]

Can you explain what this line does? (I dont get the 'main' part) if __name__ == '__main__': play_best_of(3) # 2

[@smalltamm8264]

That is basically starting the function play, watching a separate youtube video for it would give the best explanation but basically "if the name of the file is main then run the play function"

[@fertwvnbxcbwrtrecvbvcx]

This is (in my opinion) a concept that's too advanced for beginners. You should be fine for now without it. Come back later when you have learned more about other parts of Python. This happens to me all the time too, you'll get used to it in programming.

[@notseen6240]

For me it says '_name_' is not defined, anyone know how to help with that? ( I'm doing it through trinket)

[@lordxauce007]

GURL....THANK YOU FOR GETTING TO THE POINT.

[@aliway7037]

I’m able to run the program but it isn’t acknowledging a winner, only what the computer chose. I typed everything you did, is there a broader explanation around the losses?

[@Mohamedtarek-qz2zj]

Great, short and Simple tutorial, Thank you

[@tmate88-j8y]

Very fun video! Thanks for sharing it!

[@BradleyRaines]

What class did you learn this game program from Kylie ?

[@bcf_]

Cool video, did you know why when I return string like you ( Return 'It\'s a tie' ) for example. The terminal shows nothing (but it works with a classical print) ?

[@yorick9053]

For me it says: name 'math' is not defined. Could you help me. Its on line 31.

[@yorick9053]

Sry, I found the solution. Just missed 'import math' on line 2. Great video and it works for me! thanks!

[@mosammatmuntaha7645]

I just started learning this programming language and want to practice it practically. Where can I download this version of python from?

[@quantumaraa169]

Sublime text is useful. This is just python ide u can download it online.

[@olivialoveroy2868]

visual studio code . she is using visual studio code, it might help you and also you should follow a step by step video

[@ecptavares]

at line 47 of your code you used .format(n) where does this n come from? What is it? Thank you

[@BrendanMetcalfe]

Awesome project idea!

[@blaqbrane8166]

What if the player enters an invalid input? What happens and how do you include it in your code

[@LeeMynx]

may I ask what does line 10 .format(computer) means thank you

[@hbarsogay]

What will be better method to use when there are many possibilies. We cant keep adding on the condition check right? Thanks in advance ky

[@KylieYYing]

Good question. I think it depends what you’re conditioning on. There are some times where you have to condition check and have a lot of “Elif”s. In other languages, there’s even this case/switch things that is for this but python just uses if/elif/else: www.w3schools.com/js/js_switch.asp But other times you might be able to map your condition to a value in a dictionary let’s say. For example: {(paper, scissors): False, (paper, rock): True, ....} Sometimes there is no super clean way of implementing things.. and there’s usually a million different ways you can implement the same logic. Sometimes it’s at the discrestion of the engineer which one is the least ugly :’)

[@hbarsogay]

I'm a noob and have been teaching myself python through various online resources. I attempted this project as my first solo build. I failed badly and came across this video. Is it normal to feel like I know nothing lol!

[@KylieYYing]

Yep, keep practicing! It's not supposed to be easy! It's a learning process

[@alucardmax4891]

This code is super easy to read and your explanation is on point! thank you!!

[@lolman6976]

it says this have any ideas "return" can be used only within a function

[@p3nx1lz91]

Thanks Kylie

[@lordphemstar]

You didn't add a while statement that check a wrong input from the user and returns error wrong input.. Try again.. Even at entering of the wrong letter T.. It still goes on playing the game

[@hichewy6748]

Sorry I'm a beginner. I don't understand the lines below. If you can tell me some terms I need to study for. Let me know, thanks very much!: line 11: return (0, user, computer) #? how can you have 3 items inside? and what does 0 mean here? line 15: return (1, user, computer) #? similiar to above. __________ line23: return True return False i assume it's same as below? return True else: return False line 33: result, user, computer = play() ?three items again? what does it mean? Also result doesn't need to be defined ?

[@KylieYYing]

The return is a tuple (check out my intro data types video: kzbin.info/www/bejne/lWamimCmZbanarc ).. the 0 and 1 are numerical mappings to an outcome. Yes your second assumption is true. The 3 values get mapped to the 3 values you return.. so result would be 0 or 1 from lines 11/15 and user would be user etc

how to add score in this?

[@danaraujo7870]

hi all. Can anyone help me? I am confused as to how the computer relates the variables in the helper function, (player and opponent) to the ones in the main function (user and computer). By this I mean, when we write, if player == r and opponent == s, how does the computer know which variable, user or computer, corresponds with either variable, player or opponent? Alternatively phrased, it seems as if it is somewhere stated or implied in the code that user = player and computer = opponent; however, I do not see where and am therefore confused with how the helper function knows what I input and what the computer input is. Thanks in advance.

Hello can u solve me a ques for me plz Write a Python script that accepts two command line parameters, subtracts the smaller number from the larger number, and then outputs the result. Example program output: C:> python subtract.py 13 28 28 - 13 = 15 Hints: • Use an if statement to determine which number is largest.

Practice!! Also these tutorials are “perfect” coding scenarios where I code the project ahead of time and redo it. This is the reason why tutorials aren’t my favorite type of video.

[@sharonnnn_]

Early on in the code it was user and computer. Why did it suddenly change to user and opponent and then back to user and computer?

[@KylieYYing]

I defined the function using different variable names. As long as you pass in the correct reference into that variable, then it doesn't really matter. I could've even had x and y instead of user and opponent.
