How can I fix this loop so that it multiplies the two intergers and if
user types in 'quit' for either number it stops? if not it keeps going.
def multiply_integers(int1,int2):
print int1*int2
multiply_integers will return None, the Python default.
int1=float(input('Please enter 1st integer: '))
int2=float(input('Please enter 2nd integer: '))
Are you trying to get integers from the input by calling float? Or
could that be interest? Or what? The print statement later on tells me
you're using Python 2.x. Therefore you should be using raw_input above
and *NOT* input, the latter is highly dangerous.
while True:
multiply_integers= int("int1, int2")
Having defined a function you now try to reassign its name, obviously
not what you want. But that won't work as the call to int will fail as
you're passing a single string "int1, int2" to it.
print int1*int2
Why print this here when your function multiply_integers already does
exactly that?
if multiply_integers == 'Quit':
You now try to compare your function to a string. Or should
multiply_integers be an int here?
print '\nThank you for using this program! Bye.'
break
else:
print 'Not quitting'
