I am new at python but newer at flask, and I'm trying to deploy a web app where I: 1. Send the user the question 2. Get the answer from the user 3. Send additional information based on the answer
I am able to send the question but stuck at getting the answer from the user. Base on the answer from the user the server returns a specific answer from a list of dict. Here's my html: <!DOCTYPE html> <html> <head> <title>THE QUIZ</title> </head> <body> <h1>QUIZ GAME</h1> <p> Welcome </p> <h2>Would you like to play</h2> <form action="/" method="POST"> Enter your answer: <input type="text" name="answers"> <input type="submit" value="submit"> </form> </body> </html> Here's my python code: @app.route("/", methods = ['POST', 'GET']) def play(): qa = questions.qa #list of dict with questions user1, user2 = [], [] #containers for each player's answers if request.method == 'POST': answers = request.form.get('answers') random.shuffle(questions.qa) response = quiz(qa, user1) return response def quiz(qa, user): for rand_q in qa: i = rand_q['question'] i2 = check_answer(i, user) #print(rand_q["question"]) return i2 @app.route("/", methods = ['POST', 'GET']) def check_answer(ans, user): if request.method == 'POST': answers = request.form.get('answers') if 'yes' in answers: user.append('yes') i3 = ans.get(answers, '')#if the client answers "yes" to the question this part iterates over the part corresponds to yes in the list of dict return i3 #this should send 2nd part of question/rand_q Can anyone help me see what I'm doing wrong, and how do I pass the 2nd answer from my list of dict to the client.
