I am VERY new to python and have found myself very confused. Can anyone help me out or maybe better explain how I could get the output that I am wanting? I have a current dictionary that includes my "inventory" and list that includes my "dragonLoot". I am trying to create a function that asks the user if they would like to add anything else to their inventory and then add those to my standing dictionary list. I know I have the first function right, but I'm having trouble understanding what to change in the second function. This is what I have so far:
Thank you for any help you can provide,again I am extremely new to this and still struggling with functions
def displayInventory(myInv):
print("Inventory:")
total = 0
for k,v in myInv.items() :
print(str(v) " " k)
total = total v
print("Total number of items:" str(total))
def addToInventory(inventory,addedItems) :
addedItems = input("What would you like to add to your your Dragon Loot? Enter D when finished ")
if addedItems not in dragonLoot :
inventory.update({addedItems})
if input == "D" :
return dragonLoot
addToInventory(inventory,addedItems)
inventory = {'rope': 1, 'torch': 6, 'gold coin': 42, 'dagger': 1, 'arrow': 12}#Create your inventory dictonary
dragonLoot = ['gold coin', 'dagger', 'gold coin', 'gold coin', 'ruby']
displayInventory(inventory)
CodePudding user response:
Firstly, When you are trying to add a new item to the dictionary, you have to use split()
function. It will allow the user to input two values on the same line. I have done some basic changes, do the rest of your own.
def displayInventory(myInv):
print("Inventory:")
total = 0
for k,v in myInv.items() :
print(str(v) " " k)
total = int(v)
print("Total number of items:" str(total))
def addToInventory(inventory,dragonLoot) :
new_Item = int(input("How many Items you want to add? "))
counter = 0
while (new_Item != counter):
name_Item, quantity_Item = input("What would you like to add to your your Dragon Loot? Enter D when finished :").split()
if name_Item not in dragonLoot :
inventory[name_Item] = quantity_Item
counter =1
inventory = {'rope': 1, 'torch': 6, 'gold coin': 42, 'dagger': 1, 'arrow': 12}#Create your inventory dictonary
dragonLoot = ['gold coin', 'dagger', 'gold coin', 'gold coin', 'ruby']
addToInventory(inventory,dragonLoot)
displayInventory(inventory)
