Checking values for victory condition in TicTacToe












-1












$begingroup$


Winning condition is not executing properly. When I run the code, most of the time, the victory condition is either not recognized or ends the game prematurely.
NOTE: I know my code is not very efficient/ easy to understand and I would really appreciate it if someone would help me get "my logic" to work for the code before I try and learn new things and optimize it because I am a beginner and it is my first project that I'm just trying to get to work.



Tuple where X and O are stored



def resetboard(self):
global posvalues
posvalues = [
['1','2','3'],
['','',''],
['4','5','6'],
['','',''],
['7','8','9'],
]


Checking the Winning Condition



def isthereawinner(self):

global winner

##Check rows for winning condition; exclude odd nubered rows in posvalues that are blank
for num in range(0,5):
if posvalues[num][0] == posvalues[num][1] == posvalues[num][2] == character1 != "":
winner = player1
break
elif posvalues[num][0] == posvalues[num][1] == posvalues[num][2] == character2 != "":
winner = player2
break
if num:
break

##Check columns for winning condition
for num in range(0,3):
for row in range(0,5,2):
if posvalues[row][num] == posvalues[row][num] == posvalues[row][num] == character1 != "":
winner = player1
break
elif posvalues[row][num] == posvalues[row][num] == posvalues[row][num] == character2 != "":
winner = player2
break
if row:
break

##Check diagonal for the winning condition
if posvalues[0][0] == posvalues[2][1] == posvalues[4][2] == character1:
winner = player1
elif posvalues[0][0] == posvalues[2][1] == posvalues[4][2] == character2:
winner = player2
elif posvalues[0][2] == posvalues[2][1] == posvalues[4][0] == character1:
winner = player1
elif posvalues[0][2] == posvalues[2][1] == posvalues[4][0] == character2:
winner = player2

return winner


At the end of each Turn



displaywinner = print(self.isthereawinner())

if displaywinner == player1 or displaywinner == player2:
print(displaywinner + " WINS!")
return
else:
pass
