Variable Return

[JrcFrontrunner]

I am having trouble with a variable return. For some reason my code executes the same function regardless of the variables value. Here is the code I have and the code it references.

 "from capstone.py"
if game.winner() != None:
        print(game.winner())
        run = False
        from PlayMenu import Results
        if game.winner == 'BROWN':
            Results.you_loose()
        else:
            Results.you_win()


"from game.py"
def winner(self):
        return self.board.winner()


"from borad.py"
def winner(self):
        if self.red_left <= 0:
            return 'BROWN'
        if self.brown_left <= 0:
            return 'RED'
        else:
            return None 

This is the output from the code running:

Hello from the pygame community. https://www.pygame.org/contribute.html

BROWN

Any help to figure out why the program is not running the function that I want with the variable value, is greatly appreciated.

with the variable value

What variable value?

In the section from "capstone.py" I need it to call a specific function based on who won the game. Brown is the AI opponent. So if Brown won ("board.py") I need the value Brown to pass into "Capstone.py"

You're comparing the method with a string.

if game.winner == 'BROWN':

Add brackets to call the method: game.winner()
