When I call my player function it shows an error: Exception has occurred: NameError name 'player' is not defined.

def main():
    player='x'

    def switchplayer():
        global player

        if player == 'x':  # use double equal because its boolean       
              player = 'O'
        else:
              player = 'x'


if __name__ == "__main__":
    main()

Please fix the indentation. Is `switchplayer` inside `main`? – Barmar Aug 04 '22 at 23:07
You need `nonlocal player`, not `global player`. – Barmar Aug 04 '22 at 23:07
Instead of using `global`/`nonlocal`, which are generally considered code smells, you should consider a `class` to hold the game state. – 0x5453 Aug 04 '22 at 23:09
ponit is i shouldt use a class – HesamHashemi Aug 04 '22 at 23:14
@Barmar nonlocal worked thank you! – HesamHashemi Aug 04 '22 at 23:16
