# NO STUDENT CHANGES BELOW THIS POINT

# randomize random number generator with a known seed for repeatability
seed = int(input("Enter random seed: "))
random.seed(seed)

# initialize 3 hands, each with cards 2 - 10
diamonds = [2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10]
p1_spades = [2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10]
p2_clubs = [2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10]

# initialize empty lists of cards that each player captures or that are in the middle
p1_capture = []
p2_capture = []
middle_cards = []

# shuffle the deck of diamonds
diamonds = shuffle(diamonds)

# game continues while diamonds are left
while len(diamonds) > 0:
play_round(diamonds, p1_spades, p2_clubs, p1_capture, p2_capture, middle_cards)

# all diamonds are gone, so game is over - time to determine winner
determine_winner(p1_capture, p2_capture)

I can see that this code is a game involving playing cards from different suits (diamonds, spades, and clubs) and involves two players making decisions on which cards to play. The game continues until all the diamonds are gone.

To complete this game, you will need to implement the `shuffle`, `p1_algorithm`, `p2_algorithm`, `play_round`, and `determine_winner` methods as instructed in the code.

- The `shuffle` method is responsible for shuffling a given list of cards.
- The `p1_algorithm` method should ensure the human player picks a valid spade from the remaining cards in hand.
- The `p2_algorithm` method is an AI that makes a choice for the computer player.
- The `play_round` method simulates a round of the game by making the players play their cards.
- The `determine_winner` method determines the winner of the game based on the captured cards.

You should replace the placeholder lines in each method with the necessary logic to implement the game properly.

Once you complete all the methods, you can run the program to play the game and determine the winner. If you have any questions or need help with a specific part, please feel free to ask!
