The easiest way to figure out somethinglike this is to print your variables from inside the loop to see things stick, or if there is a cycle. | compcount=[5,4,2,2] | suitrank=[0,0,0,0] | | trump=2 | l,lt=0,0 | while l<4: | while lt<4: print l, lt | if l==trump: | l+=1 | if l>3: | break | if lt==trump: | lt+=1 | if compcount[l]<compcount[lt]: | suitrank[l]+=1 | lt+=1 | l+=1 -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
