That might be very frustrating. And make it a boring escape room.
We should add a hint to help them.
This needs another question and an IF block inside the original ELSE block- Change your while loop by adding code so that it looks like the screenshot
All this does is ask another question and store the answer in another variable called hint
Get the order of this stuff right and it will work!
- Run your program and check that it works. Type "Y" to get a hint and anything else not to
Did you notice that I used .upper() this time?
- Run your program again to check another set of inputs.
It's really important to check that everything works each time. This is called testing. If you test your program as you make it then you can usually pick up errors as you go.
Now do: This is a good time to add some comments to your code if you haven't already done so. Remember, comments start with #
