Error when compiling simple python program.

Question

This script won't compile. I wanted to made a simple 21-style game for practice but I get an error:

X@X:~/Desktop$ python 21.py File "21.py", 
line 18 
int(ptotal) = ptotal + newcard 
SyntaxError: can't assign to function call

Here's the code. Can anyone please help me? I'm obviously a beginner and the code is pretty sloppy.

Answer 1

Not sure where you got this syntax:

int(cone) == random.randrange(1, 11)

I think you mean this:

cone = random.randrange(1, 11)

This is also an (interesting) invention:

while hit is not "No" or "no" or "n":

You'll need:

while hit not in ["No", "no", "n"]:
