Soccer Shootout Code with Python Class Methods, Objects, Loops and Functions

In this Python tutorial, learn to create a soccer shootout game that can be played in Python user interface. This tutorial will review class methods, class objects, defining multiple functions, while loops, for loops. Also, multiple counters will need to be created to track each time a player and virtual player kicks the ball.

Import Python Modules

The Python modules random, sys, and time will need to be imported to create a few of the Python functions.

Create Python Class Methods and Objects

Within the Python soccerShooutout class, there will need to be two variables for the player team and the virtual team. Later in defining functions, a for loop will pull a random team for both teams by using a for loop and the Python random module. Also, variables for the player and virtual player teams will be created to count the amount of kicks, kicks that are blocked and kicks that are goals. Finally, in the Python class, multiple functions will need to be created to increase the counts of each of the kicks, blocks, and goals for each team.

Python Random.Sample Teams

The below two functions create a variable for each time with a list of teams. A for loop will loop through the lists and randomly pull a team for the player and the virtual team.

Define the Soccer Shootout Python Functions

The below Python functions define multiple print statements and use variables from the class and/or variables from previous functions to count each teams kick. Each time the player kicks the ball, it will count until the count is greater than 5, and then virtual team will kick and you will play goalie to block their kicks. Each team will have 5 chances to kick consecutively. The last function will print out who won with a score for each team in the soccer shootout.

Soccer Game Replay and Reset the Python Counter Class Objects

The below functions will prompt the user to replay by selecting 1 or 2. If the user selects 1, the user can play again and the system will reset the counter variables and new teams will be randomly selected. If the user selects 2, the system will exit and game is over.

I hope this Python tutorial was informative and helped build knowledge in Python class methods, class objects, for loops, while loops and reset counter variables in the class.
