The totalScore(self) function and the aceOption(self) function doesnt work and i keep getting muddled up with how to link them. currently learning how to use classes, and (self).
The output at the moment is just 2 random cards dealt to player1 and the dealer and then placed in an array. I need to give the user an option to either choose an ace, if they have one, to be an 11 or 1.
And i need a total score of the card values, if the totalScore >21 then theyre BUST and the game is over.
As you are an A-Level student then we must consider that when answering your questions. When you wrote "randNum = random.randint(0, len(cardNum) - 1)" on Line 7, you are limiting card selection down to 12 cards as opposed to 13 per suit. This will leave you with 48 cards like Lee Daniel Crocker mentioned but did not actually explain. You can also give the user the option to change the ace if that's what you want to do as it is your code but you can leave it till the end in order to simplify things.
