If statement error in Python -
there seems recurring error in python code... problem presume within if statement, there possibility me? doing assignment @ school , appears if user guesses word, congratulated , if don't it, have try again.
my code:
import time import random import os words = open("words.txt","r") wordlist = [] lines in words: wordlist.append(lines) wordlist=[line.rstrip('\n')for line in wordlist] print(wordlist[0:3]) print(wordlist[3:6]) print(wordlist[6:9]) time.sleep(2) os.system(['clear','cls'][os.name == 'nt']) random.shuffle(wordlist) print(wordlist[0:3]) print(wordlist[3:6]) print(wordlist[6:9]) removedword = (wordlist[9]) print("---------------------------") guesses = 0 while guesses <3: guess = input("what removed word?") guesses = guesses + 1 if guess == removedword: print("you have guessed correctly!") else: print("fail") inside shell:
['night', 'smoke', 'ghost'] ['tooth', 'about', 'camel'] ['brown', 'funny', 'chair'] ['tooth', 'brown', 'chair'] ['price', 'smoke', 'funny'] ['about', 'night', 'camel'] --------------------------- removed word?ghost have guessed correctly! removed word?ghost have guessed correctly! removed word?ghost have guessed correctly!
your while-loop counts 3 , doesn't stop though answer correct. avoid need check if answer correct , break loop.
here's altered code:
import time import random import os words = open("words.txt","r") wordlist = [] lines in words: wordlist.append(lines) wordlist=[line.rstrip('\n')for line in wordlist] print(wordlist[0:3]) print(wordlist[3:6]) print(wordlist[6:9]) time.sleep(2) os.system(['clear','cls'][os.name == 'nt']) random.shuffle(wordlist) print(wordlist[0:3]) print(wordlist[3:6]) print(wordlist[6:9]) removedword = (wordlist[9]) #printed win every time #print(removedword) print("---------------------------") guesses = 0 #added flag unanswered = true #while guesses less 3 , question unanswered while guesses <3 , unanswered: guess = input("what removed word?") guesses = guesses + 1 if guess == removedword: print("you have guessed correctly!") #correct answer, changes flag unanswered = false else: print("fail") if unanswered: print("game over!")
