needing help with this assignment
Im working on a python assignment. The end result of the assignment is to produce a program of the game Solitaire that randomly generates a random amount of cards with a random suit between A and D and a random stack location between 1-6.
The code that comes given to me , produces a board and stack locations of where the cards must be displayed and their x and y locations for convenience.
Im required to draw a card with 4 unique graphics to make each suit unique.
Please note
Here is the code

#-----Assignment Description-----------------------------------------#
#
# PATIENCE
#
# This assignment tests your skills at processing data stored in
# lists, creating reusable code and following instructions to display
# a complex visual image. The incomplete Python program below is
# missing a crucial function, "deal_cards". You are required to
# complete this function so that when the program is run it draws a
# game of Patience (also called Solitaire in the US), consisting of
# multiple stacks of cards in four suits. See the instruction sheet
# accompanying this file for full details.
#
# Note that this assignment is in two parts, the second of which
# will be released only just before the final deadline. This
# template file will be used for both parts and you will submit
# your final solution as a single Python 3 file, whether or not you
# complete both parts of the assignment.

#-----Function for Assessing Your Solution---------------------------#
#
# The function in this section will be used to mark your solution.
# Do not change any of the code in this section.
#
# The following function creates a random data set specifying a game
# of Patience to be drawn. Your program must work for any data set
# returned by this function. The results returned by calling this
# function will be used as the argument to your deal_cards function
# during marking. For convenience during code development and marking
# this function also prints the game data to the shell window.
#
# Each of the data sets generated is a list specifying a set of
# card stacks to be drawn. Each specification consists of the
# following parts:
#
# a) Which stack is being described, from Stack 1 to num_stacks.
# b) The suit of cards in the stack, from 'A' to 'D'.
# c) The number of cards in the stack, from 0 to max_cards
# d) An "extra" value, from 0 to max_cards, whose purpose will be
# revealed only in Part B of the assignment. You should
# ignore it while completing Part A.
#
# There will be up to num_stacks specifications, but sometimes fewer
# stacks will be described, so your code must work for any number
# of stack specifications.

for stack in game_stacks:
# Choose the suit and number of cards

# Add the stack to the game, but if the number of cards
# is zero we will usually choose to omit it entirely

# your own "deal_cards" function.
#

#-----Main Program---------------------------------------------------#
#
# This main program sets up the background, ready for you to start
# drawing the card game. Do not change any of this code except
# as indicated by the comments marked '*****'.
#
# Set up the drawing canvas
# ***** Change the default argument to False if you don't want to
# ***** display the coordinates and stack locations
create_drawing_canvas()
# Control the drawing speed
# ***** Modify the following argument if you want to adjust
# ***** the drawing speed

# ***** Set the following argument to False if you don't want to wait
# ***** while the cursor moves around the screen

# ***** Replace this title with a description of your cards' theme

### Call the student's function to draw the game
### ***** While developing your program you can call the deal_cards
### ***** function with one of the "fixed" data sets, but your
### ***** final solution must work with "random_game()" as the

# deal_cards(full_game) # <-- used for code development only, not marking
