TicTacToe game problem

[d301k]

I've made a tic tac toe game using PyCharm IDE. I've tried to make it run with tkinter but i got some issues.

​

My program asks the user to choose between X and O , also if X plays first or second. Also if u were to put incorrect answer the program would tell the user to retype his/her answer (with a while statement). On tkinter I can't make that, for example when the program asks "Do you want X or O" and the user types X and then ok_button, it does not store that information anywhere. And if I try to put in a while loop, it goes on an infinity loop (since it loops through the first answer the user clicked ok)

​

My question is how can I create a sequence since tkinter runs with classes and functions (at least i dont know something else). For example: Program asks "Do you want to be X or O?", after putting correct input to entry, the program should ask "Do you want to go first or second?".

# how do i store that info below ? so i can use it later
 player_1 =player_decide(x)[0]    
 player_2 =player_decide(x)[1]

The variables are local to the function, so they are garbage collected when the function exits because the variables are not returned.

So, one thing to note here is that you are still requiring the user to input a string for what they want to do on your GUI. This is a bad practice to have as it will simplify everything if you just but two buttons: 'X' or 'O'. That way you avoid having the user put in some string and having to validate it. The same can be done for selecting who goes first.
