I'm stuck. I took some time off to clear my head and I still can't figure it out. Please help!
def move(player, direction):
x, y, hp = player
moves = [(1, 0), (-1, 0), (0, 1), (0, -1)]
if x == 0:
moves.remove((1, 0))
if x == 9:
moves.remove((-1, 0))
if y == 0:
moves.remove((0, -1))
if y == 9:
moves.remove((0, 1))
if direction not in moves:
hp -= 5
else:
if direction == (1, 0):
x -= 1
if direction == (-1, 0):
x += 1
if direction == (0, -1):
y -= 1
if direction == (0, 1):
y += 1
return x, y, hp

Treehouse Moderator 68,423 PointsIt tricky to get the directions and limits operating in the same direction. If I reverse the x operations it seems to pass:
def move(player, direction):
x, y, hp = player
moves = [(1, 0), (-1, 0), (0, 1), (0, -1)]
if x == 0:
moves.remove((-1, 0)) # sign flip
if x == 9:
moves.remove((1, 0)) # sign flip
if y == 0:
moves.remove((0, -1))
if y == 9:
moves.remove((0, 1))
if direction not in moves:
hp -= 5
else:
if direction == (-1, 0): # sign flip
x -= 1
if direction == (1, 0): # sign flip
x += 1
if direction == (0, -1):
y -= 1
if direction == (0, 1):
y += 1
return x, y, hp
