Why do I get IndentationError on def ask line? Here is my code:
import datetime
import random
from questions import Add, Multiply
class Quiz():
questions = []
answers = []
def __init__(self):
question_types = (Add, Multiply)
#queston_type[0](1, 5)
# generate 10 random questions with numbers from 1 to 10
for _ in range(10):
num1 = random.radint(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 time
# show a summary
def ask(self, question):
# log the start time
# capture the answer
# check the answer
# log the end time
# if the answer's right, send back True
# otherwise, send back False
# send back the elapsed time, too
def total_correct(self):
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 total # of questions. 5/10
print("You got {} out of {} right!".format(
self.total_correct(), 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
))

print("It took you {} seconds total".format(
