pyhtzee 1.1.0

Yahtzee game engine

pyhtzee

Yahtzee game engine supporting both regular (maximum 1505) and Joker rules (maximum 1575). Example code:

from pyhtzee import Pyhtzee
from pyhtzee.classes import Category, Rule
from pyhtzee.utils import category_to_action_map, dice_roll_to_action_map

pyhtzee = Pyhtzee(rule=Rule.FREE_CHOICE_JOKER)
print(pyhtzee.dice)

This shows the dice:

[2, 5, 6, 1, 6]

Next reroll dice 1, 2 and 5:

action = dice_roll_to_action_map.get((True, True, False, False, True))
pyhtzee.take_action(action)
print(pyhtzee.dice)

Now we have two pairs:

[4, 6, 6, 1, 1]

Let's reroll just the first die to see if we can get a full house:

action = dice_roll_to_action_map.get((True, False, False, False, False))
pyhtzee.take_action(action)
print(pyhtzee.dice)

Bingo!

[6, 6, 6, 1, 1]

Now let's choose the action for full house and check the scorecard:

action = category_to_action_map[Category.FULL_HOUSE]
reward = pyhtzee.take_action(action)
print(f'Reward: {reward}, Scorecard: {pyhtzee.scores}')

This shows that we got a reward of 25, which can be confirmed in the scorecard:

Reward: 25, Scorecard: {<Category.FULL_HOUSE: 8>: 25}
