Question

I wrote in addition to timed quiz for question breakdown:

return 3 instead of 2 arguments from ask() -

return correct, answer, question_end - question_start

then add onto summary

def summary(self):
    #print answers == True
    print("You got %s out of %s right." % (self.total_correct(),len(self.questions)))
    print("It took you %s seconds to complete." % (self.end_time - self.start_time).seconds)
    #if input("wana breakdown?") == 'y':
        return self.intense_summary()

def intense_summary(self):
    for question,answer in zip(self.questions, self.answers):
        if answer[0] == False:
            print("\n"+question.text +" = "+ str(answer[1]) + " is " + str(answer[0]))
            print("Correct answer is " + str(question.answer))
            print("It took you %s seconds to answer" % (answer[2]).seconds)

        elif answer[0] == True:
            print("\n"+question.text +" = "+ str(answer[1]) + " is " + str(answer[0]))
            print("It took you %s seconds to answer" % (answer[2]).seconds)

Im not sure if its cos its python 2 or using liclipse but the #if input("wana breakdown?") == 'y': wouldnt run so I just run the breakdown automatically.

also python 2 does not unpack !!! learnt this the hard way with print(*answer) ... thought I was going insane

ps. my indentation is messed up to make it print it nicely for the forum :)

Python 2 totally unpacks, but, in Python 2, print is a keyword, not a function. So you're trying to unpack a tuple into a tuple in a weird spot so, yeah, it's invalid syntax.

The input() probably isn't working because Python 2 uses raw_input for what Python 3 uses input. Python 2's input is actually pretty insecure so don't use it.
