I'm trying to use a for loop to iterate through a set of variables, check if those variables stored string data (specifically their 'Pokemon.evolution' string) is the same as a variable name in the set, and then replace that string with the variable name itself. I've tried various ways of writing the for loop, but nothing seems to do what I want it to. Here it is in "plain speak" to hopefully explain what I mean: for x in (): if Pokemon.name is in pokemon_db: pokemon_db = Pokemon.evolution else: pass Here is the code I have so far: class Pokemon: def __init__(self, name, pokedex_number, height, weight, category, abilities, type, weaknesses, pre_evolution, evolution, image): self.name = name self.pokedex_number = pokedex_number self.height = height # in Metres (Format: float) self.weight = weight # in Kilograms (Format: float) self.category = category self.abilities = abilities self.type = type self.weaknesses = weaknesses self.pre_evolution = pre_evolution # If n/a - Mark as ' False ' self.evolution = evolution # If n/a - Mark as ' False ' self.image = image # Pokedex image stored in 'pokedex_images' folder ... bulbasaur = Pokemon("Bulbasaur", "0001", 0.7, 6.9, "Seed", "Overgrow", "Grass"+"Poison", "Fire"+"Ice"+"Flying"+"Psychic", None, "Ivysaur", ...) ivysaur = Pokemon("Ivysaur", "0002", 1.0, 13.0, "Seed", "Overgrow", "Grass"+"Poison", "Fire"+"Ice"+"Flying"+"Psychic", bulbasaur, "venusaur", ...) venusaur = Pokemon("Venusaur", "0003", 2.0, 100.0, "Seed", "Overgrow", "Grass"+"Poison", "Fire"+"Ice"+"Flying"+"Psychic", ivysaur, None, ...) pokemon_db = {bulbasaur, ivysaur, venusaur} I've managed to do the change manually, using this code, but I want to know if the program can do the check & update for me. # Evolution updates to attributes ivysaur.evolution = venusaur charmeleon.evolution = charizard wartortle.evolution = blastoise Continue reading...
