Simon game pattern question

[bfry]

As my final project, I've been working on recreating a Simon-like game and I can't for the life of me figure out how to program a typical Simon-style pattern. I have no problem with randomization, the user matching each color, or adding to a pattern. I just don't know how to get the previous pattern to play so I can add a new random color to the pattern until the player misses.

I have attached what I have so far. I have about a week to get this done so any help without directly giving me the solution would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks.

Do you know how to use lists? If so, there's your hint - lists will be by far the easiest way to do that.

I was thinking that using a list was going to be the best way too since it can grow and shrink as needed. The problem is that I know how to get the values into a list, but I don't know how to extract the values that I need from it -- such as getting the stored pattern to play in a specific order.

EDIT:
Nevermind, I figured it out.

Can you upload your final i am doing the exact same thing for my final and need help :/

What I would do is have a random number be selected, and depending upon what is selected, use a series of if/else statements to determine the next color.
