# you made a couple of different choices to select stats. but how to work from them?
# So your NPC had a stat choice like "Bad (10,10,10,10,10,8)"  or random
# first of all lets make it a bit more readable/handy
# choices are:
CHOICES = ['Bad', "Medium", "Random"]

# lets make a second dictionary with what that means
STAT_CHOICES = {
    "Bad": [10, 10, 10, 10, 10, 8],
    "Medium": [14, 12, 12, 10, 10, 8],
    "Random": True,
}

# as you can see stats for not random is pretty straight forward, it list 6 stats in order
# now how to assign them? Lets work from an npc thats been created
import json

with open("NPC/location/name.json", 'r') as f:
    npc = json.loads(f.read())


stats = STAT_CHOICES[npc['ARRAY']]
# what this does is load the stats from STAT_CHOICES from the value! of npc['ARRAY']
# meaning npc['ARRAY'] returns 'Bad'
# so the actual lookup is STAT_CHOICES['Bad']
# so returns: [10, 10, 10, 10, 10, 8]
# now you can come up with a way to assign the stats to an npc (hint you can also look at class

# remember lists and index?  lets put stats to a npc
npc['STATS'] = {
    "strength": stats[0],
    "dexterity": stats[3],
    "constitution": stats[4],
}

# however this leaves us with Random. Those dont have stats, so how do we do this?
# conditions come in handy here
# before you start 'assigning' stats, it might be a good idea to check what you are dealing with
# so lets go back to stats
def get_random_stats():
    import random
    # come up with a way to get 6 random stats.
    # random.randint(number, higher_number)  returns a value between number and higher number

if npc['ARRAY'] == "Random":
    stats = get_random_stats()
else:
    stats = STAT_CHOICES[npc['ARRAY']]
