6,731 PointsIronPython 2.7 errors out while Workspaces and PyCharm both work
I'm following along with the video using IronPython 2.7. When I try to create the character in the IronPython console, I get the following error:
>>> from character import Character
>>> player = Character()
Name: Jeremy
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
File "C:\Program Files (x86)\IronPython 2.7\character.py", line 17, in __init__
NameError: name 'Jeremy' is not defined
>>> player = Character()
Name: jeremy
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
File "C:\Program Files (x86)\IronPython 2.7\character.py", line 17, in __init__
NameError: name 'jeremy' is not defined
When I run it in PyCharm or workspaces it works fine. Here is the code:
class Character:
experience = 0
hit_points = 10
def get_weapon(self):
weapon_choice = input("Weapon ([S]word, [A]xe, [B]ow): ").lower()
if weapon_choice in 'sab':
if weapon_choice == 's':
return 'sword'
elif weapon_choice == 'a':
return 'axe'
else:
return self.get_weapon()
def __init__(self, **kwargs):
self.name = input("Name: ")
self.weapon = self.get_weapon()
for key, value in kwargs.items():
setattr(self, key, value)
Does this have to do with the version of Python?
