Distribution of Cards(List & Nested for)

We are going to create a program that will distribute 52 cards of a deck amongst 4 players "Randomly".

Before creating a program we have to create those cards in Python language. In a deck of cards, there is a collection of 52 cards categorized into 2 types (numbers and suits(houses)). numbers= ['Ace', '2', '3', '4', '5', '6', '7', '8', '9', '10', 'Jack', 'Queen', 'King'] suits= ['Hearts', 'Diamonds', 'Clubs', 'Spades'] The cards we are going to create will be in the form of tuple ex:: ('Ace','club'),('king','spades'),('10',' hearts),('5','diamonds')

1. In this program, we are going to import a random library so that we can use the shuffle() function to generate randomness in the cards.co

import random

1. Now we are going to create a deck of 52 cards. For that, we have to take 2 lists. 1st list includes number cards. 2nd list includes suits

suits = ['Hearts', 'Diamonds', 'Clubs', 'Spades']
ranks = ['Ace', '2', '3', '4', '5', '6', '7', '8', '9', '10', 'Jack', 'Queen', 'King']

1. Now that we have created the lists. It's time to combine them, make cards, and then form a deck.

deck=[]
for suit in suits:
    for rank in ranks:
      deck.append((rank,suit))

1. Now is the time to shuffle the deck before the distribution of cards. For that, we will use the shuffle() function of the random library.

random.shuffle(deck)

1. Now we have to code to create a game that consists of 4 players and we will divide the cards amongst them to start the game.

game=[]
for i in range(4):
    l=[]
    player=input(f'enter the name of {i} player:')
    for card in deck[i::4]:
        l.append(card)
    l.insert(0,player)
    game.append(l)

1. Now the distribution is completed, random, and equal. we can check the cards of the player (optional) and start the game.

for i in game:        # OPTIONAL
    print(i)          # OPTIONAL
print('LET THE GAME BEGINS')
