I have a program for a Blackjack game. It is not completed but I am having an issue with Unicode. When it prints a string it is not in the correct format (Look Below). It is Python 3.
from unicurses import * import sys import time from random import choice as rc import random def total(hand): #total aces = hand.count(11) t = sum(hand) if t > 21 and aces > 0: while aces > 0 and t > 21: t -= 10 aces -= 1 return t def random(one,two): import random number = random.randint(one,two) return number def number(): number = random(1,13) if number == 13: value = '0' elif number == 12: value = '0' elif number == 11: value = '0' elif number == 10: value = '0' elif number < 10: value = number return value def card(): cardnumber = number() card = cardnumber return card def store10Cards(): tenCards = [card(), card(), card(), card(), card(), card(), card(), card(), card(), card()] return tenCards stdscr = initscr() cards = store10Cards() mvaddstr(10, 10, '┌──────────┐\n│{} │\n│ │\n│ │\n│ │\n│ │\n│ │\n│ │\n│ │\n│ {}│\n└──────────┘'.format(cards[0], cards[0]).encode('utf-8')) #deck = [] #deck of cards #cwin = 0 #computer wins #pwin = 0 #player wins #for i in range (2, 11): # for j in range ([24, 72][i == 10]): # deck.append(i) #stdscr = initscr() #Start the standard screen start_color() #Start the color service init_pair(1, COLOR_RED, 0) #color pair 1 is red text and no highlighting init_pair(2, COLOR_WHITE, 0) #color pair 2 is white text and no highlighting addstr('\n\n------------------------------------------------------------------------', color_pair(1) | A_BOLD) addstr('\n\n\nAre You Ready To Try And Defeat The Undefeated Blackjack Master?\n\n\nThe First One To Win 10 Hands Wins!!!\n\n\nAces Are Counted As 11s And Automaticlly Change To 1 If You Go Over 21. \n\n\nWinning 1 Hand Does Not Mean You Win The Game\n\n\nIt Is Possible To Win But Very Hard!!!

Please help me print the string like it should be and not be in unicode.
If you have any other suggestions on my code let me know.
