trouble with classes in python

Question

I am getting an error that reads this and no matter what I do I am unable to get rid of this code.

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "C:\Users\Ian\Desktop\BlackJack.py", line 226, in <module>
    main()
  File "C:\Users\Ian\Desktop\BlackJack.py", line 225, in main
    blackjack.playgame()
  File "C:\Users\Ian\Desktop\BlackJack.py", line 145, in playgame
    self.firstround()
  File "C:\Users\Ian\Desktop\BlackJack.py", line 83, in firstround
    a=self.dealer.hand.append(DeckofCards.deal(DeckofCards.shuffledeck))
AttributeError: type object 'DeckofCards' has no attribute 'shuffledeck'

The following is the actual code that I have written ( I have changed a great deal in order to move the error along but can no longer figure out what is going on) I am really just want someone to skim over this and tell me about the obvious mistakes, I am sure there are many, and I apologize but our professor doesn't teach use how to do things and then just expects us to know how.

Answer 1

This line right is one problem:

a=self.dealer.hand.append(DeckofCards.deal(DeckofCards.shuffledeck))

• append returns None (regardless of what you append), so a will be None
• DeckofCards refers to the class object, not an instance of the class. You probably want to use self.deck instead of DeckofCards.

x==Card('S','A'): isn't going to work either. You haven't defined __eq__ for the Card object, so comparisons don't work (you'll always get False).

Answer 2

class Game(object):
    def __init__(self,deck, player):
        self.player=Player(player,[],True,100,0,0)
        self.dealer=Player("Dealer",[],True,100,0,0)
        self.deck=DeckofCards(deck)
        self.blackjack= False #self.blackjacksearch()
    def blackjacksearch(self):#this is where it says there is an error we moved this because she said it needed to be in this class to get the Getot function 
        if self.player.hand.gettot()==21:
            return True
        else:
            return False    
    def firstround(self):
        self.player.inout=True
        self.player.hand=[]
        self.dealer.hand=[]
        a=self.dealer.hand.append(DeckofCards.deal(DeckofCards.shuffledeck))

You are using the class incorrectly. The DeckofCards was never created.

        a=self.dealer.hand.append(self.deck.deal(self.deck.shuffledeck))

Answer 3

The shuffledeck attribute only exists for instances of DeckOfCards, change DeckOfCards.shuffledeck to DeckOfCards().shuffledeck.
