Python Forum

Hi i'm working on improving my code and making it clearer/shorter.

I'm having problems using the function i created. I can use this in Idle on the command line i.e Price(ripple) but not within the script.

Any ideas or a nudge in the right direction.

Look forward to any replies.

regards

J

import requests
import json

crypto =  {'ripple': '10', 'iota': '20'} # dictionary of crypto name and units pruchased

class Crypto:

    def __init__(self, coin, price):
        url = 'https://api.coinmarketcap.com/v1/ticker/'
        self.coin = coin
        self.price = price
        self.api = url + coin


def Price(self): #at command window type: Price(ripple)
           
        json_data = requests.get(self.api).json()
        dic = json.dumps(json_data)
        dict = json.loads(dic)[0]
        #print (dict)
        print (float(dict['price_usd']))
        #price = ("%.2f" %(dict['price_usd']))
        #pricefloat = str(round(price,2))
        #print = (pricefloat)

def URL(self): #at command window type: URL(ripple)
        print (self.api)


#rippleprice = Price(ripple) # this does not work
