1,155 PointsMaking a metronome. (Need help with the sound part)
Here's my code for a text based metronome:
import time tempo = input("What tempo would you like your beeps in? ") print("Outputting the word \"Beep\" at {} times per minute".format(tempo)) count = 1 while 1 == 1: print("Beep number: {}".format(count)) time.sleep(60 / int(tempo)) count += 1
so it takes the input value tempo through a question, then has a count that increases each time and outputs this Beep number: 1 Beep number: 2
and so on until 1 stops equaling 1 which is never.How would I add a sound to this code so when the beep comes the computer will output a sound? links or directions to where to learn about this would be much appreciated. using python 3. Thanks
