this is the code for this sub routine
def elimination():
global name
global contestants
global tempContestants
global lipsync_songs
global bottom_two
bottom = tempContestants[0:len(tempContestants)-1]
tempContestants.remove(bottom)
bottom1 = tempContestants[0:len(tempContestants)-1]
tempContestants.remove(bottom1)
bottom_two = [bottom, bottom1]
print(bottom_two[0], "and", bottom_two[1], "I'm sorry my dears but you are up for elimination")
lipsync()
eliminated = bottom_two[random.randint(0,len(bottom_two)-1)]
bottom_two.remove(eliminated)
safe = str(bottom_two)
print("Ladies, I have made my decision")
print(safe+", shantay you stay!")
print(eliminated+", sashay away!")
contestants.remove(eliminated)
if eliminated == name:
print("You have been eliminated!")
quit()
and here is the error message
tempContestants.remove(bottom)
ValueError: list.remove(x): x not in list
what does this mean and how do i fix it?
This reproduces your error:
In [644]: [1,2,3].remove(4)
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
ValueError Traceback (most recent call last)
<ipython-input-644-181ce8c0fac7> in <module>
----> 1 [1,2,3].remove(4)
ValueError: list.remove(x): x not in list
In [645]: [1,2,3].remove(3)
Looks like bottom
is a list of elements of array;
In [689]: [1,2,3].remove([1,2])
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
ValueError Traceback (most recent call last)
<ipython-input-689-9c95562dca44> in <module>
----> 1 [1,2,3].remove([1,2])
ValueError: list.remove(x): x not in list
===
bottom = tempContestants[0:len(tempContestants)-1]
tempContestants.remove(bottom)
In [691]: x = [1,2,3,4]
In [692]: bottom = x[0:len(x)-1]
In [693]: bottom
Out[693]: [1, 2, 3]
You could remove the items iteratively:
In [694]: for i in bottom: x.remove(i)
In [695]: x
Out[695]: [4]
or just select the slice that you want to keep:
In [696]: x = [1,2,3,4]
In [698]: x[-1:]
Out[698]: [4]
This code will randomly discard one of the last two contestants. I don't know if this is your intent, but I will throw it out as a straw man.
import random
def elimination():
# get last two contestants
candidates = tempContestants[-2:]
if len(candidates) != 2:
print("Sorry, not enough players")
quit()
print("{} and {}, I'm sorry my dears but you are up for elimination".format(
*candidates))
lipsync()
# select and and remove the loser
eliminated = random.choice(candidates)
candidates.remove(eliminated)
safe = candidates[0]
tempContestants.remove(eliminated)
# report the news
print("""Ladies, I have made my decision.
{}, shantay you stay!
{}, sashay away!""".format(safe, eliminated))
# decide fate of game
if eliminated == name:
print("You have been eliminated!")
quit()
def lipsync(): pass
tempContestants = ["A", "B", "C", "D", "E", "F"]
name = "F"
elimination()
Running this, you will get two possible outputs because of the random choice. One run results in
E and F, I'm sorry my dears but you are up for elimination
Ladies, I have made my decision.
E, shantay you stay!
F, sashay away!
You have been eliminated!
