Question

In volleyball, there are 5 matches in a game. My daughter’s volleyball league would like a program that will accept the number of points that each team scored in the 5 matches and print out the data along with the winner. The winning team is that one that wins the most matches. Note: It is not necessarily the team that scores the most number of points.

Here are an example of the program running.

Sample Run

This program will track the scores in a volleyball game.

Enter the score that team 1 got on match 1?

>> 25

Enter the score that team 2 got on match 1?

>> 20

Enter the score that team 1 got on match 2?

>> 25

Enter the score that team 2 got on match 2?

>> 20

Enter the score that team 1 got on match 3?

>> 15

Enter the score that team 2 got on match 3?

>> 25

Enter the score that team 1 got on match 4?

>> 10

Enter the score that team 2 got on match 4?

>> 25

Enter the score that team 1 got on match 5?

>> 25

Enter the score that team 2 got on match 5?

>> 20

Team 1 Team 2 Winner

Match 1 25 20 Team 1

Match 2 25 20 Team 1

Match 3 15 25 Team 2

Match 4 10 25 Team 2

Match 5 25 20 Team 1

Winner is Team 1.

Answer 1

This is my first python program so it goes with the basics hope it helps with the results you are looking for.

game_num = 0

results = []

w1=0

w2=0

while game_num < 5:

score1 = int(input("Enter the score that team 1 got on match {} -\n".format(game_num+1)))

score2 = int(input("Enter the score that team 2 got on match {} -\n".format(game_num+1)))

if score1>score2:

winner = "Team 1"

w1 += 1

elif score2>score1:

winner = "Team 2"

w2 += 1

else:

winner = "Tie"

subresults = ["Match " + str(game_num+1), score1,score2,winner]

results.append(subresults)

game_num += 1

print("     ","Team1 ", "Team2", " Winner")

game_num = 0

while game_num < 5:

print(results[game_num][0]," ",results[game_num][1] ," ",results[game_num][2]," ",results[game_num][3])

game_num +=1

if w2 > w1:

print ('\nThe Winner is Team 2')

elif w1>w2:

print ('\nThe Winner is Team 1')

else:

print('\nThe game was a Tie')

Answer 2

Here's what the code all looks like together:

# Import pandas to create the dataframe later

import pandas as pd

# Program Intro

print("This program will track the scores in a volleyball game.")

# Create empty variables for storage of the current match and the total game results

match = 0

game_results = []

# Create a while loop that runs through however many games you want to have.

while match < 5:

match += 1

team_1_score = input(f"Enter the score that team 1 got on match {match}:\n")

team_2_score = input(f"Enter the score that team 2 got on match {match}\n")

if team_1_score > team_2_score:

winner = "Team 1"

elif team_2_score > team_1_score:

winner = "Team 2"

else:

winner = "Tie"

match_results = [team_1_score, team_2_score, winner]

game_results.append(match_results)

# Create the dataframe with the given data

df = pd.DataFrame(game_results, columns=['Team 1', 'Team 2', 'Winner'], index=['Match 1', 'Match 2', 'Match 3', 'Match 4', 'Match 5'])

# Show the scoreboard

print(df)

Hope this helps!
