python - While Loop Complications -

-

i'm writing python program based on accordion style of solitaire. i've written above code , have been playing around last couple hours can't seem make loop run correctly. whatever reason either run through loop once , not ask input again, or run through once, ask input, , no matter input crashes. ideas i'm doing wrong here?

here code:

import random  print("command options:") print("1c - play card c onto pile 1 position back, ignored if invalid") print("3c - play card c onto pile 3 positions back, ignored if invalid") print("c - count of undealt cards") print("d - deal next card") print("h - print screen") print("r - resign game (quit early)") print("x - exit program")  cards=['ac','2c','3c','4c','5c','6c','7c','8c','9c','tc','jc','qc','kc','ad','2d','3d','4d','5d','6d','7d','8d','9d','td','jd','qd','kd','ah','2h','3h','4h','5h','6h','7h','8h','9h','th','jh','qh','kh','as','2s','3s','4s','5s','6s','7s','8s','9s','ts','js','qs','ks'] random.shuffle(cards,random.random)  playable=[] done=false while not done:     move=input("enter move: ")     move_upper=move.upper()     if move_upper == 'd':         playable.append(cards.pop())         print(playable)     if move_upper == 'x' or 'r':         done=true      if move_upper == 'h':         print("command options:")         print("1c - play card c onto pile 1 position back, ignored if invalid")         print("3c - play card c onto pile 3 positions back, ignored if invalid")         print("c - count of undealt cards")         print("d - deal next card")         print("h - print screen")         print("r - resign game (quit early)")         print("x - exit program")     if move_upper == 'c':         k=0         item in cards:             k+=1             print(k,'cards left')

you misunderstanding how or works. use:

if move_upper in ('x', 'r'):

instead.

the expression move_upper == 'x' or 'r' interpreted (move_upper == 'x') or 'r' instead, , non-empty string always considered true. thus, in essence testing (move_upper == 'x') or true, , doesn't matter anymore move_upper is, really.

you don't need use done flag variable here; use break end loop instead:

while true:     # ...      if move_upper in ('x', 'r'):         break

i have google question , find answer in day. know, data design many many table have list column,and mark pk , fk. why er-diagram have find this? data design process of designing database. main output of data design detailed logical data model of database. some people data design includes of needed logical , physical design choices , physical storage parameters needed generate design in data definition language. technically, database analysis, database analysts (dbas) trained do. while person can both data design , database analysis, these 2 different tasks. data design models data. database analysis takes model , applies 1 or more database engines (relational, hierarchical, nosql). a logical data model 1 of main outputs of data design. data model represented entity relationship diagram, or er diagram.
