16 | ## How to Play
17 | 1. Run the script using Python 3:
18 |    ```bash
19 |    python threecupmonte game.py
20 |    
21 | 2. The program shuffles a list: [' ', 'O', ' '].
22 | 3. You will be prompted to guess the position of the "O" by entering 0, 1, or 2.
23 | 4. The program evaluates your guess and provides feedback:
24 |       Correct Guess: Prints "Correct! 👏"
25 |       Incorrect Guess: Prints "Wrong guess! 😢"
26 | 5. The shuffled list is revealed to show the correct position.

29 | Code Overview
30 | 1. shuffle_list(mylist): Shuffles a given list randomly.
31 | 2. player_guess(): Ensures user input is valid and returns the guessed position.
32 | 3. check_list(game_list, guess): Compares the user's guess with the shuffled list and displays results.
33 | 4. Main Game: Combines all the functions to run the game interactively.
34 | 
35 | Customization
36 | Change the symbols in the list to suit your preference (e.g., replace 'O' with 'X').
37 | Add a scoring system or implement multiple rounds.
38 | Expand the game with more advanced Python concepts like GUIs using Tkinter.
39 | 
40 | 
41 | Requirements
42 | Python 3.6 or later installed on your system.
