Im revisiting this tutorial of classes from LPTHW:
http://learnpythonthehardway.org/book/ex43.html
Im in the middle of the 'class LaserWeaponArmory(Scene)' and playing around with the while loop for the code guess and I tried doing it a bit different like this:
code = randint(1,3)
user_guess = raw_input("> ")
while user_guess != code:
print "BZZZT!"
print "Try again"
user_guess = raw_input("> ")
if user_guess == code:
print "The door slides open and you grab the bomb"
return 'the_bridge'
else:
print "The lock buzzes again and the Gothons charge in anc kill you"
return 'death'
However this just seems to loop endlessly for me and I never get the right answer.
If I change the first line to this:
code = "%d" % randint(1,3)
it works just fine, but if I open the Python terminal and do the following:
x = randint(1,3)
x will then return a random int between 1 and 3 which is exactly what I was trying to make the program do but it didn't seem to work as I expected.
Im confused about why "%d" % is required in the program for it to work.
