looks good for your 1st program. some improvements that i can think of:
1. notice how you repeat blocks of code? specifically, i mean: (ask a
question, get the answer, validate the answer). since this is all
similar code, it's a great place for you to learn what a loop is.

Hi! My first "ever" program that I've created is a simple game called "State
Capitals". It's straight forward; 5 simple questions about state capitals in
a non-GUI format. Can someone look over my code and offer tips, suggestions,
criticism? Also, I'd like to be able to end the program if the us
The IDLE documentation (run idle -h) says that
idle -r file.py
runs the commands in the file.
Is that what you are doing? It looks different to your Win98 version.

One thing to watch is that re.match() only checks if the pattern

dave,
i'm a little surprised by this. if your code has been working for
almost a year and suddently breaks, that can only be explained by 1 or
