Or simply install a Python 2.x interpreter. ___ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor

Hello, Shurui Liu try adding, as Sander Sweers has written, the break keyword to your script. In the meantime I've written an alternative version of the program that does the same thing. I'm a complete beginner (Python is my first programming language) and a hobbyist so I thought I could take up the challenge and try to solve the problem in my spare time. The script seems to work, I've tested it. List members, if there are any mistakes or things that can be done better, please let me know. Here's the body of the script: #!/usr/bin/python # -*- coding: utf-16 -*- right_guess = 7 number_of_guesses = 10 print Guess the number. You have ten guesses for an_attempt in range(1, 11): answer = int(raw_input(Guess the number: )) if answer == right_guess: print That's the correct number! Congrats pal, I mean my dear teacher ;) break else: number_of_guesses = number_of_guesses - 1 if number_of_guesses == 0: print You have no more guesses.\n\t\tGAME OVER break print That's not the right number. Choose again, you have %i more guesses % number_of_guesses Regards, Piotr guess_my_number.py Description: Binary data ___ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor

Re: [Tutor] command error help
Shurui Liu (Aaron Liu) shuru...@gmail.com wrote SyntaxError: EOL while scanning single-quoted string. Yes, that sounds about right. But it doesn't add much. Can you print the entifre error message not just that single line? Or Here is a program I need to run in putty.exe, but there is an error in it. I cannot find out. When I ran this program, it mentions that the error is in red line. How are you running the code in putty. I don't get any red lines in my terminal... It suggests you might be using some other tool or IDE perhaps? Since I can't see any single quoted strings in your code we can't begin to guess what line the error pertains to. It might for example be one of the apostraphes thats causing the error? name = raw_input(Hi. What's your name? ) age = raw_input(And how old are you? ) age = int(age) weight = raw_input(Okay, last question. How many pounds do you weigh? ) weight = int(weight) print \nIf poet ee cummings were to email you, he'd address you as, name.lower() ee_mad = name.upper() print But if ee were mad, he'd call you, ee_mad dog_years = age / 7 print \nDid you know that you're just, dog_years, in dog years? seconds = age * 365 * 24 * 60 * 60 print But you're also over, seconds, seconds old. called = name * 5 print \nIf a small child were trying to get your attention, \ your name would become: print called moon_weight = weight / 6.0 print \nDid you know that on the moon you would weigh only, moon_weight, pounds? sun_weight = weight * 27.1 print But on the sun, you'd weigh, sun_weight, (but, ah... not for long). raw_input(\n\nPress the enter key to exit.) -- Alan Gauld Author of the Learn to Program web site http://www.alan-g.me.uk/ ___ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
