Hey everyone I'm trying to write the game Cricket that you play on a darts board and I'm a little stuck on how to make a prompt that would take any number of players between 1 and 4. I used if statements however I feel that isn't the best or most elegant way. I'm trying to learn how to handle creating objects when the number of objects is unknown until a user specifies. Any help would be appreciated.
#This is the game of Cricket played on a darts board.
#This program keeps track of the dart board progress and scores of each player.
#Player object

"bullseye": 0}
self.score = 0
def card(self, throw):
if throw in self.hits:
print("Great {0}!".format(throw))
if self.hits[throw] < 3:
self.hits[throw] = self.hits.get(throw) + 1

self.add_score(throw)
print(self.hits, " Points: {0}.".format(self.score), sep='\n')
