I have made a class in which there are 3 functions.

1. def maxvalue
2. def min value
3. def getAction

In the def maxvalue function, I have made a list of actions. I want that list to be accessed in def getaction function so that I can reverse the list and then take out the first entry from it. How can do i that??

 def getAction(self,gamestate):bestaction.reverse()return bestaction[0]def maxvalue(gameState, depth):actions = gameState.getLegalActions(0);v = -9999bestaction = []for action in actions:marks = minvalue(gameState.generateSuccessor(0, action), depth, 1)if(v < marks):v = marksbestaction.append(action)return v

It is giving me an error....."global name bestaction is not defined"

It's a good idea to post actual code - it makes it easier to see what's happening.

With that said, you probably want something like this:

class MyClass(object):def max_value(self):# assigning your list like this will make it accessible # from other methods in the classself.list_in_max_value = ["A", "B", "C"]def get_action(self):# here, we're doing something with the listself.list_in_max_value.reverse()return self.list_in_max_value[0]>>> my_class = MyClass()
>>> my_class.max_value()
>>> my_class.get_action()
"C"
