Plutonic Rainbows

A simple script that asks a user to guess the number. It uses a while loop that will continue to ask for user input until the condition is met. We then use exit() to break the loop.

from sys import exit

while True:
    print "Try and guess the number."
    guess = raw_input("> ")

    if guess == "7":
            print "You guessed correctly."
            exit(0)

    else:
        print "Wrong."

Next week's work will be solely Japanese; namely Kanji and sentence construction. I'm also going to try and get a short story finished. A busy week ahead.

Started a new job today. Wrapping up this week's work with Python revision, so here's a simple division calculator using (float(raw_input(">"))) to get user input. I also use \n to create clean lines when terminal gives you the results.

def division(value_1, value_2):
    print "\nDividing %d / %d\n" % (value_1, value_2)
    return value_1 / value_2

value_1 = (float(raw_input(">")))
value_2 = (float(raw_input(">")))

result = division(value_1, value_2)

print "\nThe answer is %d.\n" % (result)

This seems like a lot of code (at least for a beginner like me), but it uses loops and lists so that the user can navigate around with varying outcomes.

    print "There's plenty of money here. How much do you take?"

    next = raw_input("> ")
    if "0" in next or "1" in next:

    else:
        dead("Please type in something useful.")

    if how_much < 50:
