A little stock market game in Python

Question

This is a stock market game I made in Python a while ago, and I wanted to go ahead and share it on here. If you are wondering, the reason why there is only 2 stocks is due to the fact that creating a single stock is a long and dull process. Though, as I want to have a future in finance, this little text based game was fun to make.

import time
import sys
import random
#########3
class Player:
 def __init__(self, name):
 self.name = name
 self.money = 20
 pass
class Stock:
 def __init__(self, name):
 self.Stock = 0
 self.name = name
 self.value = 10
 self.price = self.value
 pass
p = Player("Player")
#########
pstock = Stock("Delta Airlines Stock")
cstock = Stock("Coleas Choclate Factory Stock")
###############
def Home():
 print("You are home.")
 print("Your money:")
 print p.money
 time.sleep(1)
 print("1.) Go to market")
 print("2.) Check what stocks you own")
 home = input("")

 market()

Your market() function could use some refactoring. For example, your code could be condensed to:

def market():
 delta = random.randint(1,3)
 if delta == 1:
 deltacash = random.randint(1,3)
 pstock.value += deltacash
 finalmarket()
 elif delta == 2:
 deltalow = random.randint(1, 3)
 pstock.value -= deltalow
 finalmarket()
 else:
 finalmarket()
 bob = random.randint(1, 3)
 if bob == 1:
 bobcash = random.randint(1, 3)
 cstock.value += bobcash
 finalmarket()
 elif bob == 2:
 boblow = random.randint(1, 3)
 cstock.value -= bobcash
 finalmarket()
 else:
 finalmarket()

You can summarize the above code into "add a random value between -3 and 3" leading to:

def market():
 delta = random.randint(-3,3)
 pstock.value += delta
 finalmarket()
 bobcash = random.randint(-3, 3)
 cstock.value += bobcash
 finalmarket()

Cases where randomint is equal to 0 would result in pstock/cstock unchanged and a call to finalmarket() which is what you have in the final else statements for each case.

Overall, The same logic I used here could be used in other functions as well:

finalmarket() - math with deltas, repeated additions -> multiply, look into string .format() to avoid multiple print statements
