If you have any questions, comments or issues with this project please post them here!
since this isnāt in the solution and nobody has posted here yet, i decided to post my attempt that includes the option to add more cards. it works, but is probably much more convoluted than necessary. my decision to add an āidā key probably didnāt help much either, but thatās what i came up with at the time.

I really liked the made up stat names :)))
what is the meaning of the word TRUMP?
āTrumpā is a word used in card games when you win due to a better ranking card. That would be your āTrump Cardā
Fun Fact:
In Germany there is a saying: āHeart is Trump.ā It means, Heart beats all other cards, but it also applies to Real Life!

You arenāt alone sir! Random makes certain decisions so much easier lol lovely coding!
I feel like my code is pretty helpful. I struggled a lot with this one! I think I also fixed some bugs in the solution (like inputting invalid names, and stats, as well as ensuring the computer does not pick the same character as me. ). The output is not very pretty though lol. If anyone has any suggestions to make it a bit nicer on the terminal and overall easier on the eyes I would love to hear it! I am also not really sure how the block quote works!

This code is a simple implementation of the game āTop Trumpsā using a dictionary in Python. Hereās a breakdown of how the code works:
- Importing Modules: The code begins by importing the necessary modules:
os,time, andrandom. These modules provide functionalities for clearing the console, adding delays, and generating random choices, respectively. - Dictionary Initialization: The code creates a dictionary named
trumpsto store information about different characters. Each character is represented as a key in the dictionary, and the corresponding value is another dictionary containing attributes such as āIntelligence,ā āSpeed,ā āGuile,ā and āBaldness Level.ā The values associated with these attributes represent the characterās level or score for each attribute. - Game Loop: The code enters an infinite loop using
while True:. This loop allows the game to continue until it is manually interrupted. - Printing Character List: Inside the loop, the code prints the header āTOP TRUMPSā and displays the list of available characters from the
trumpsdictionary. - User Input: The code prompts the user to pick a character by inputting the characterās name.
- Computer Selection: The code randomly chooses a character from the
trumpsdictionary as the computerās selection. - Attribute Selection: The code prompts the user to choose an attribute (āIntelligence,ā āSpeed,ā āGuile,ā or āBaldness Levelā) to compare between the userās and computerās characters.
- Attribute Comparison: The code retrieves the attribute values for the userās and computerās characters from the
trumpsdictionary and compares them. If the userās value is higher, the user wins. If the computerās value is higher, the computer wins. Otherwise, itās a draw. - Printing Results: The code prints the attribute values for both the userās and computerās characters, as well as the result of the comparison.
- Delay and Clearing Console: The code adds a delay of 2 seconds using
time.sleep(2)to allow the user to see the result. Then it clears the console usingos.system("clear")(assuming the code is run on a Unix-based system) to prepare for the next round.
The loop continues, and the game repeats until it is manually interrupted.
print(fā{user}: {trumps[user][answer]}ā)
print(f"{comp}: {trumps[comp][answer]}")
if trumps[user][answer] > trumps[comp][answer]:
print(user, āwinsā)
elif trumps[user][answer] < trumps[comp][answer]:
print(comp, āwinsā)
Can you also explain about this part
print(f"{user}: {trumps[user][answer]}")
print(f"{comp}: {trumps[comp][answer]}")
These lines of code are responsible for printing the selected characterās value for the chosen stat. It uses f-strings (formatted strings) to concatenate the values of user , comp , answer , and the corresponding values from the trumps dictionary. For example, if the user chose āDavidā as the character and āIntelligenceā as the stat, it would print āDavid: 178ā as the output.
if trumps[user][answer] > trumps[comp][answer]:
print(user, "wins")
elif trumps[user][answer] < trumps[comp][answer]:
print(comp, "wins")
else:
print("Draw")
These lines of code determine the winner of the comparison based on the selected stat. It compares the values from the trumps dictionary for the selected stat between the userās character (user) and the computerās character (comp).
- If the userās value is greater than the computerās value, it prints ā{user} winsā where
{user}is the name of the userās character. - If the userās value is less than the computerās value, it prints ā{comp} winsā where
{comp}is the name of the computerās character. - If the values are equal, it prints āDrawā indicating that the comparison resulted in a tie.
Overall, these lines of code compare the selected stat values of the userās character and the computerās character and print the corresponding winner or draw result.

Iāve been going through these, and Day 47ās project was challenging!
I really want to understand how to do this, so I spent time over 2 or 3 days working on Day 47.
Ultimately, I ended up asking ChatGPT to help me troubleshoot some aspects, and also to clarify when I didnāt understand something. Sometimes my code didnāt work merely because I used " double quotes " inside a print function, instead of ā single quotes ā āChatGPT helped me figure out that problem real fast, and Iām sure I wonāt forget for a while. 
Hereās my really odd Tops Trumps script.
Users can add as many new items as they want, and then play against the computer.
They can either select their own card, or have it randomly selected.

Both should work, though?

Take this code for instance:
print(f"{p1}'s {p1_stats['intelligence']} beats {p2}'s {p2_stats['intelligence']}.\n\n{p1.upper()} wins")
That works, but what doesnāt work is putting intelligence in double quotes.
print(f"{p1}'s {p1_stats["intelligence"]} beats {p2}'s {p2_stats["intelligence"]}.\n\n{p1.upper()} wins")
The above code doesnāt work because itās already inside the double quotes of the print(f"...") function. I had to use the single quotes so I stopped confusing my print function!
well explained thank you
If anyone wants to see the code that does everything (adding new cards and both playing versus the computer or another player) or wants to try Brooklyn 99 Top Trumps, hereās mine
https://replit.com/@annabelgangster/Top-Trumps-Brooklyn-99-47100
This is my very British attempt at Top Trumps!
https://replit.com/@MichaelDaburn/day47100
A quick edit to the def topTrumps(): to add a while True: for incorrect entries and shortened the card selection process.

The reason for alternating between single and double quotes is to avoid confusion for the interpreter. You have to enclose the keys as 'intelligence'. This helps the interpreter recognize where the string starts and ends without becoming confused by the inner quotes.
