name undefined Coding Error - Ewilliam51 - Feb-06-2020
I created a program that is supposed to ask the user for a number, tell the user whether the number is odd or even and then ask the user if they want to try another number. I made some sort of error but I honestly don't know what it could be
This is the program
import time
while True:
number = int(input("Give me a number: "))
time.sleep(2)
if number % 2 == 0:
print("This is an even number")
elif number % 2 != 0:
print("This is an odd number")
time.sleep(2)
repeat = input("Would you like to try another number(y/n):")
if repeat.strip() == "n":
break
print("Okay bye now")The code works until it asks the user if it wants to try againwhen I try to type y or n I get this error
Error:Traceback (most recent call last):
File "testing.py", line 10, in <module>
repeat = input("Would you like to try another number(y/n):")
File "<string>", line 1, in <module>

The problem is that you're using Python 2. You should use Python 3 instead.
Note: we can tell you how to make this work for Python 2, but we're not going to unless you absolutely must be using Python 2, since it's been end-of-life'd and we're all trying to move to the better thing anyway.

Thank you, I just realized I had accidentally download Python 2 and forgot to uninstall it I will make sure to switch back to Python 3
