Output prints Account.id at the end?
#1
First off, I appreciate anyone who takes a look at this code. I did my best to read the rules here on the forums and I am trying my best to follow them. I am a new user here so please pardon me if I make a mistake and please don't hesitate to let me know how I can improve as a forum member. I would hope to become a contributing member here on the forums myself now that I am pretty familiar with the python language and I would also like to really start rounding out my overall knowledge.

Secondly, this is just a junk script that I have coded to improve my overall OOP abilities for RPG programming. I know there are privative methods here and probably things I am doing completely wrong and that is okay, don't worry about that. Any pointers to proper documentation I should be reading is always appreciated as there is so much vast information to absorb it is always nice to have suggestions and go back to the references I may have missed or forgotten. The main objective here is to help me understand what I am missing on the current level I am at. I assumed I knew enough of this language to read every line and find this out, I have done some searching and I cant quite find a post that matches. Maybe I just need a fresh pair of eyes on here and it's super obvious, we will see. I only managed to discover what the output was referenced to and not where or why it is being printed in my output.

The Question: Why does the Account.id get printed/returned to the very end of my console output after player is created and login is successful?

Output:
[Account Creation Menu] Username: Guest Password: 123 [Account Information & Details] User ID: 1 Username: Guest Password: (Hidden) VIP Rank: None [Updating Table Entry] {'ID': 1, 'Username': 'Guest', 'Password': '***', 'Rank': None} --Table Entry Updated Successfully!-- [.:: Please Login ::.] Username: Guest Password: 123 --[Logging Into System]-- Login Successful... 1

Thank you again to anyone who offers some advice or any help. I wish you a very Merry Christmas and happy holidays throughout this upcoming New Year!

When I run your code locally, I don't get anything after the "Login Successful..." output. I wonder if you have something else in your environment that is generating it.

Weird, I wonder what it is then. For a moment I thought I was crazy that I couldn't find out why.. However, as always computers never cease to amaze me. Basically I am just using the standard Python Interpreter v3.9.0 Shell to run my code example. I will try to run it in CMD and a 3rd party compiler to see if I get a different result. If anyone knows why the interpreted would do such a thing? I haven't missed any code I am sure of it, maybe there are some settings I am not aware of that effect this.

Thank you for your reply Bowlofred, it's greatly appreciated!

UPDATE: Just ran the code on 2 separate compilers. 1 On my pc, one 3rd party web-based so there would be nothing on the web-based environment to cause this. I am absolutely stumped on where this reference is being called and printed from.

print(cache[0]) in item is printing the "1".

Awesome, what a beast. I knew it just needed a fresh pair of eyes. Thanks good sir, I hope to return the favor one day. I will also provide some +Rep if possible. Not sure if my account rank is allowed to or if that is a feature.

I need to pay more attention to my __init__ methods.

not related to your question and you said "I know, don't worry about it", but there is so much of really weird/plainly wrong stuff going on in your code that I had to mention it.
