Python program for rolling the dice (2-player dice game)

2-player rolling the dice game in Python: Here, we are going to learn how to implement a python program for rolling the dice (2-player dice game) using abstract data class? By Anuj Singh Last updated : April 21, 2023

Roll the dice game for 2 players

Here, we will be going to design a very simple and easy game and implement it using abstract data class. The code consists of two different classes (The base of the whole program). The one will be the class for the player and others will be for the game.

Code structure

The formal code structure is as:

• player() class: This player class will be storing player name, its age and its color code for the game. There is a method called score which stores the attribute score associated with the player. Another method getscore() for calling the value of score stored.
• game() class: This class represents the game and take input as the player (class type) and the number of trails. The method __init__() defines the attribute associated with the class type game. The method gaming() is consisting of the whole game.
• dice() function: The function dice just give output as a random value from the number set [1,2,3,4,5,6]. This uses random.choice() function for performing this task.

Game rules

Player will throw a dice and the output will be added to the current scores of the player (initially equal to zero). If the dice had output 6 then it would be thrown again (one dice: 6, one more turn: 4. Then the total would be 6+4 = 10). The sum of total will be throwing id the total score of the player with a particular number of trials.

Python program for rolling the dice (2-player dice game)

So let us get to the code:

import random

def roll():
    return random.choice([1,2,3,4,5,6])

class player(object):
    def __init__(self, name, age, colour):
        self.name = name
        self.age = age
        self.colour = colour
        
    def score(self, score):
        self.score = score    
    def getscore(self):
        return self.score
    
    def getname(self):
        return self.name
    def __str__(self):
        return 'NAME: ' + self.name + '\nCOLOUR: ' + self.colour + '\nSCORE: ' + str(self.score)
    

class game(object):
    def __init__(self, playr, trails):
        self.trails = trails
        self.playr = playr
        
    def gaming(self):
        throw = 0
        score = 0
        for i in range(self.trails):
            throw = roll()
            if throw == 6:
                throw = throw + roll()
            score = throw + score    
        return score
        
    def __str__(self):
        return self.playr.getname() + str(self.score)
tri = 123        
    


zack = player('zack', 24, 'green')
johny = player('johny', 25, 'yellow')
kina = player('kina', 14, 'red')
usher = player('usher', 13, 'blue')
print("-----------LETs PLAy THIs GAMe--------------\n" )
#zack.score(88)
#print(zack)
zackscr = game(zack, tri)
johnyscr = game(johny, tri)
kinascr = game(kina, tri)
usherscr = game(usher, tri)

scr = []
scr.append(zackscr.gaming())
scr.append(johnyscr.gaming())
scr.append(kinascr.gaming())
scr.append(usherscr.gaming())

scrsort = sorted(scr)
for el in scrsort:
    print(el)


zack.score(scr[0])
usher.score(scr[3])
kina.score(scr[2])
johny.score(scr[1])

#players = []
#players.append(zack.getscore())
#players.append(usher.getscore())
#players.append(kina.getscore())
#players.append(johny.getscore())
# =============================================================================
# =============================================================================
# =============================================================================
# # # = = = = = = == = = = == = = == = = = == = = == = = == = = == == = == == =

#for el in players:
#    print('--', el)
#print(scr[0])        
print(zack, '\n')
print(kina, '\n')
print(johny, '\n')
print(usher, '\n')

Output

The output of the above program is:

-----------LETs PLAy THIs GAMe-------------- 
 
485
489
491
525
NAME: zack 
COLOUR: green
SCORE: 485 
 
NAME: kina 
COLOUR: red
SCORE: 491 
 
NAME: johny
COLOUR: yellow 
SCORE: 489 
 
NAME: usher
COLOUR: blue 
SCORE: 525
