So I am creating a game where basically it asks people a few questions about what type of questions they want to answer and how many they want to answer and what not. I am having a problem figuring out how to random mathematical operations such as addition, multiplication, and subtraction in particular. Here is my whole code but the only part I am looking for help on is where it says “mixed” because I need to figure out how to mix the three operations.
import random
correct = 0
while True:
questions = int(input("Enter the amount of questions would you like to answer: "))
difficulty = input("Enter the difficulty of questions you would like: Beginner, Intermediate, or Advanced: ")
math = input("Would you like to do addition, subtraction, multiplication, or mixed: ")
if difficulty == "Beginner":
for i in range(questions):
if math == "multiplication":
beg1 = random.randint(1, 10)
beg2 = random.randint(1, 10)
prod = beg1 * beg2
begAns = input("What is " + str(beg1) + " times " + str(beg2) + "? ")
if int(begAns) == prod:
print("That's right -- well done.\n")
correct += 1
else:
print("No, I'm afraid the answer is ",prod)
elif math == "subtraction":
beg1 = random.randint(1, 10)
beg2 = random.randint(1, 10)
prod = beg1 - beg2
begAns = input("What is " + str(beg1) + " minus " + str(beg2) + "? ")
if int(begAns) == prod:
print("That's right -- well done.\n")
correct += 1
else:
print("No, I'm afraid the answer is ",prod)
elif math == "addition":
beg1 = random.randint(1, 10)
beg2 = random.randint(1, 10)
prod = beg1 + beg2
begAns = input("What is " + str(beg1) + " plus " + str(beg2) + "? ")
