Simple problem with Class RandomEvent in Python

March 12, 2023

I create a simple text quest with random events, which accumulated a lot, and I decided to separate them into a separate class. But after that I got a problem. It doesn’t look complicated, but I can’t find a solution.

import random


class Hero:
    def __init__(self, name):
        self.name = name


hero1 = Hero('Bob')


class RandEvents:
    def __init__(self, hero):
        self.hero = hero

    def event1(self):
        print(f'>>> {self.hero.name} text 1 event! <<<')

    def event2(self):
        print(f'>>> {self.hero.name} text 2 event! <<<')


list_events = [RandEvents.event1, RandEvents.event2]
event = random.choice(list_events)
event(hero1)

I get

  File "E:\1.py", line 17, in event1
    print(f'>>> {self.hero.name} text 1 event! <<<')
                 ^^^^^^^^^
AttributeError: 'Hero' object has no attribute 'hero'

I tried to create a function rand_event(), and move it to a class Hero or RandEvents. To no avail.

>Solution :

Fixed:

import random


class Hero:
    def __init__(self, name):
        self.name = name


hero1 = Hero('Bob')


class RandEvents:
    def __init__(self, hero):
        self.hero = hero

    def event1(self):
        print(f'>>> {self.name} text 1 event! <<<')

    def event2(self):
        print(f'>>> {self.name} text 2 event! <<<')


list_events = [RandEvents.event1, RandEvents.event2]
event = random.choice(list_events)
event(hero1)
