Hi Sebastiaan
I've looked at your code, and I don't understand the final part, the
one which is supposed to calculate the sorted order of the
millionaires:
# We can establish the correct order of Millionaires 2 and 3.
comparison = [5]
if m1_gt_m2 and m1_gt_m3 and m1_gt_m4 and m1_gt_m5:
comparison = [1]
elif not m1_gt_m2 and m2_gt_m3 and m2_gt_m4 and m2_gt_m5:
comparison = [2]
elif not m1_gt_m3 and not m2_gt_m3 and m3_gt_m4 and m3_gt_m5:
comparison = [3]
elif not m1_gt_m4 and not m2_gt_m4 and not m3_gt_m4 and
m4_gt_m5:
comparison = [4]
The original code is here:
http://hg.viff.dk/viff/file/153c24a4a6c5/apps/millionaires.py#l115
and it works by ordering the numbers 1, 2, 3 by hand in the comparison
list: it first checks to see if 2 and 3 should be ordered [3, 2] or
[2, 3] and it then puts the number 1 into this list in the right spot.
The final output is thus something like this:
I am Millionaire 1 and I am worth 193 millions.
From poorest to richest:
Millionaire 3
Millionaire 2
Millionaire 1 (193 millions)
and I can understand why you don't get this output with your code.
