Hey Everyone,
I'm trying to create a simple ruby program that asks 5 questions and displays the score. following is the code
def score(a, b, c, d, e)
puts "#{a},#{b},#{c},#{d},#{e}"
if a == 'D'
puts "Right Answer"
s = 1
else
puts "Wrong Answer"
end
if b == 'W'
puts "Right Answer"
s2 = s+1
else
s2 = s
puts "Wrong Answer"
end
if c == 'B'
puts "Right Answer"
s3 = s2+1
else
s3 = s2
puts "Wrong Answer"
end
if d == 'P'
puts "Right Answer"
s4 = s3+1
else
s4 = s3
puts "Wrong Answer"
end
if e == 'L'
puts "Right Answer"
s5 = s4+1
else
s5 = s4
puts "Wrong Answer"
end
puts "your score is #{s5}"
end
puts "capital of india?"
A1 = gets
puts "capital of USA?"
A2 = gets
puts "capital of china?"
A3 = gets
puts "capital of france?"
A4 = gets
puts "capital of UK?"
A5 = gets
score(A1, A2, A3, A4, A5)
The issue here is that it always displays wrong answer and empty score even you if you input the right answers into the gets prompt. So just curious to know what is going wrong here ?
