Can you output memory as a dictionary?

[CreeperLove3000]

I'm trying to output memory as a dictionary but memory is staying as a None value, does this mean that memory can't be a dictionary and how can I fix it?

What exactly are you expecting as an output? Memory is None until you feed a value into it from with a return. If you meant history, what way would you want it to output?

If you want to store a dictionary in 'memory', don't forget that you have to instantiate it yourself! You also have make sure that dictionary can be read in as parameter, and is being outputted as well.

Here's a simple example of "grimTrigger" written with a dictionary in 'memory':

def strategy(history, memory):

    nextMemory = None
    if memory is not None:
        nextMemory = memory
    else:
        nextMemory = {}
        nextMemory['whatIHadForBreakfast'] = "eggs"
        nextMemory['wasIWronged'] = False

    if history.shape[1] >= 1 and history[1,-1] == 0: # Just got wronged.
        nextMemory['wasIWronged'] = True

    choice = 0 if nextMemory['wasIWronged'] else 1
    return choice, nextMemory
