I'm having a little problem with Rubiks Cube scrambler in python.
There is my code:
from random import randint
moves = ["F", "F'", "R", "R'", "L", "L'", "U", "U'", "D", "D'", "B", "B'", "F2", "R2", "L2", "U2", "D2", "B2"]
scramble = []
lenght = len(scramble)
lenght_moves = len(moves) - 1
def good_move(scramble, lenght):
if scramble[lenght] == "R" or scramble[lenght] == "R'" or scramble[lenght] == "R2":
if scramble[lenght - 1] == "R" or scramble[lenght - 1] == "R'" or scramble[lenght - 1] == "R2":
return False
if scramble[lenght] == "L" or scramble[lenght] == "L'" or scramble[lenght] == "L2":
if scramble[lenght - 1] == "L" or scramble[lenght - 1] == "L'" or scramble[lenght - 1] == "L2":
return False
if scramble[lenght] == "F" or scramble[lenght] == "F'" or scramble[lenght] == "F2":
if scramble[lenght - 1] == "F" or scramble[lenght - 1] == "F'" or scramble[lenght - 1] == "F2":
return False
if scramble[lenght] == "U" or scramble[lenght] == "U'" or scramble[lenght] == "U2":
if scramble[lenght - 1] == "U" or scramble[lenght - 1] == "U'" or scramble[lenght - 1] == "U2":
return False
if scramble[lenght] == "D" or scramble[lenght] == "D'" or scramble[lenght] == "D2":
if scramble[lenght - 1] == "D" or scramble[lenght - 1] == "D'" or scramble[lenght - 1] == "D2":
return False
if scramble[lenght] == "B" or scramble[lenght] == "B'" or scramble[lenght] == "B2":
if scramble[lenght - 1] == "B" or scramble[lenght - 1] == "B'" or scramble[lenght - 1] == "B2":
return False
return True
while (lenght < 20):
print (lenght)
print (scramble)
random = randint(0, lenght_moves)
if lenght - 1 >= 1:
if good_move(scramble, lenght - 1) == False:
print ("I'm here")
while (good_move(scramble, lenght - 1)) != False:
random = randint(0, lenght_moves)
print (random)
scramble.remove(lenght - 1)
scramble.append(moves[random])
else:
scramble.append(moves[random])
else:
scramble.append(moves[random])
lenght = len(scramble)
print (scramble)
So, when I'm running my program, he is going to
if lenght - 1 >= 1:
if good_move(scramble, lenght - 1) == False:
print ("I'm here")
while (good_move(scramble, lenght - 1)) != False:
random = randint(0, lenght_moves)
print (random)
scramble.remove(lenght - 1)
scramble.append(moves[random])
And he is looping up... I tried with "i" instead of "length - 1" but it didn't work (index out of range etc.).
moves = ["F", "F'", "R", "R'", "L", "L'", "U", "U'", "D", "D'", "B", "B'", "F2", "R2", "L2", "U2", "D2", "B2"]
scramble = []
length = len(scramble)
length_moves = len(moves) - 1
def good_move(scramble, length):
if scramble[length] == "R" or scramble[length] == "R'" or scramble[length] == "R2":
if scramble[length - 1] == "R" or scramble[length - 1] == "R'" or scramble[length - 1] == "R2":
return False
if scramble[length] == "L" or scramble[length] == "L'" or scramble[length] == "L2":
if scramble[length - 1] == "L" or scramble[length - 1] == "L'" or scramble[length - 1] == "L2":
return False
if scramble[length] == "F" or scramble[length] == "F'" or scramble[length] == "F2":
if scramble[length - 1] == "F" or scramble[length - 1] == "F'" or scramble[length - 1] == "F2":
return False
if scramble[length] == "U" or scramble[length] == "U'" or scramble[length] == "U2":
if scramble[length - 1] == "U" or scramble[length - 1] == "U'" or scramble[length - 1] == "U2":
return False
if scramble[length] == "D" or scramble[length] == "D'" or scramble[length] == "D2":
if scramble[length - 1] == "D" or scramble[length - 1] == "D'" or scramble[length - 1] == "D2":
return False
if scramble[length] == "B" or scramble[length] == "B'" or scramble[length] == "B2":
if scramble[length - 1] == "B" or scramble[length - 1] == "B'" or scramble[length - 1] == "B2":
return False
return True
i = 0
while (i < 20):
print (length)
print (scramble)
random = randint(0, length_moves)
if i >= 2:
if good_move(scramble, i) == False:
print ("I'm here")
while (good_move(scramble, i)) != False:
random = randint(0, length_moves)
print (random)
scramble.remove(i)
scramble.append(moves[random])
else:
scramble.append(moves[random])
else:
scramble.append(moves[random])
i += 1
print (scramble)
For example, in second code i put "i" insted of lenght and when my program is meeting function, he is telling that "index is out of range" I don't know why, if i >= 2 it can't be out of range because "lenght"(in function) == 1,2,3 and so on and "lenght - 1" == 0,1,2. Any ideas how to solve this problem?
BTW. For example correct scramble to Rubiks Cube:
R2 U2 R2 B' U2 B2 R2 F' U2 L' B2 F2 U' F2 R' B D R B R'
if good_move(scramble, lenght - 1) == False:
print ("I'm here")
while (good_move(scramble, lenght - 1)) != False:
This is the first problem. The while
loop will never be entered here, because good_move
will certainly be false when you reach the print
line. Perhaps you meant to have the same condition each time.
if good_move(scramble, lenght - 1) == False:
print ("I'm here")
while (good_move(scramble, lenght - 1)) == False:
scramble.remove(lenght - 1)
This is the second problem. list.remove(x)
does not remove list[x]
from the list. It searches through the list for the first instance of x and removes it, no matter where it is. If you want to remove the last element of the list, you can slice it off.
scramble = scramble[:-1]
Or delete it.
del scramble[-1]
Now your program should end properly. Sample result:
["F'", 'D', 'B', 'D', 'B2', "U'", 'R2', 'L2', "D'", 'B2', 'F', "R'", 'B2', 'R', "F'", "R'", "B'", 'U2', 'F', 'L2']
