You have downloaded a game which consists of betting, you don’t want to play, but you want to earn some money, create a script which controls the program so you can bet automatically
The program: https://pastebin.com/DZ04YNWu

Please can someone create a script which is able to control the program and pass to me the code?
I’d like to learn something about processes…

So we have to create the script and you will magically learn? Try learning by doing research and trying stuff out yourself.

In any case, please make a live version of this code. I would love to bet some money given this implementation…

Yesterday I looked for an hour and didn’t found anything…
Just controlling the keyboard but is not exactly what I want.
I’m using Popen, from subprocess do you recommend me any other library?

Perhaps tell us what you do want then.

And no, that wasn’t ironic.

Try controlling that script and then explain how did you did it.

And… What do you mean with a live version?

Control how? I can start the script and even terminate it as I wish. Is that enough control for you?

Live as in running somewhere with actual monetary transactions.

Make a script which can control the program so for example:
bet 5$ with a 50% win probability
if you lose, make the same but with 10$
then with 20$
then with 40$
and so on….
Something like a bot…

And why is subprocess not good enough for that?r guys/gals remark other than to signal that you are female.

Well, I can’t control the program maybe you can…

this is my code:
```
from subprocess import Popen, PIPE
import time

def keypress():
p = Popen([‘python’, ‘wannaBeRich.py’], stdin=PIPE, stdout=PIPE)
p.stdin.write(‘n\n’)
i=0
while i<100:
p.stdin.write(‘1\n’)
i+=1

keypress()
```

My idea is to bet 1$ with a 1% probability of winning for a 100 times,
But doesn’t work…
Help me pls

weird, Doesn’t appear the name of the program…
edit: well, imagine before the comma is written the name of the process

Can’t check right now, but it probably works. It just won’t do what you expect it to do.

Here are some tips:

Always try debugging your code. Add some print statements to see what’s happening. That way you can give more useful information to the people you ask help from instead of just dumping code in their laps. It might even allow you to solve the problem yourself!

Try reading from p.stdout. If you don’t the game will block.

Ok, I’ve been looking to p.stdout, but my code still doesn’t work.
Can you tell me where I’m wrong?

The issue is that by default stdin and stdout are buffered. You can use the stdbuf tool to change that or add flush() after your writes. (Also, calling reset hides some info.)

Still doesn’t work…
Maybe you can help me a little bit more via PM…

I agree with dloser, you should make a live version, I would be rich so easily!

You can pass the -u option to python to disable output buffering, it has alredy been a good solution when I had a similar problem.

Lol, hahaha.
I love when people go bug-hunting on a program which has been created in 3 min… xD
Gonna fix it
Good work @WHGhost :D
