3,806 PointsIndentation Block Error
I've had a really big issue with this specific file for over a week now. Regardless of how many times I have retyped this code, it still continually returns an error that there is an indentation error at the 'ask' method. Is there a way that you all go about debugging this issue in Python? Below I put in the code for the program.
import datetime
import random
from questions import Add, Multiply
class Quiz:
questions = []
answers = []
def __init__(self):
question_types = (Add, Multiply)
# generate 10 random quesions with numbers from 1 to 10
for _ in range(10):
num1 = random.randint(1, 10)
num2 = random.randint(1, 10)
question = random.choice(question_types)
# add these questions into self.questions
self.questions.append(question)
def take_quiz(self):
# log the start time
# ask all of the questions
# log if they got the question right
# log the end line
# show a summary
def ask(self, question):
# log the start time
# capture the answer
# check the answer
# log the end time
# if the answer is right, send back True
# otherwise, send back false
# send back the elapsed time too
def total_correct(self):
# return the total # of corrct answers
total = 0
for answer in self.answers:
if answer[0]:
total += 1
return total
def summary(self):
# print how many you got right and the toal # of questions
print("You got {} out of {} right.".format(self.total_corect(), len(self.questions)))
# print the total time for the quiz: 30 seconds!
print("It took you {} seconds total.".format((self.end_time-self.start_time).seconds))
