Problems with Equality of Numbers

[SheeppOSU]

I have made code to help study multiplication facts but I am having some problems I need fixed. First off and the easiest is that I enter the same number loaded into the variable but it says that they are not the same. If that was hard to understand just take a look. 2. I need a way to only give someone 3 seconds to answer instead of all the time they need.

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27

import random import time Number_0_list = [0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12] Number_1_list = [0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12] variable = 0 print('You have 3 seconds to answer each question') time.sleep(3)               for x in range(0,10):     print('Ready...')     time.sleep(1)     print('Set...')     time.sleep(1)     print('Go!!!')     time.sleep(1)     Number_0 = random.choice(Number_0_list)     Number_1 = random.choice(Number_1_list)     print(Number_0, '*', Number_1)     Answer = Number_0 * Number_1     variable_record = variable     InputAnswer = input("Answer Here: ")     if InputAnswer == Answer:         print('Nice Job!')         time.sleep(1)     else:         print('OOF! Better luck next time')         time.sleep(1)         print('The real answer is %s' % Answer)

Output:
You have 3 seconds to answer each question
Ready...
Set...
Go!!!
1 * 5
Answer Here: 5
OOF! Better luck next time
The real answer is 5
Ready...
Set...
Go!!!
6 * 11
Answer Here: 66
OOF! Better luck next time
The real answer is 66
Ready...
Set...
Go!!!

Try this. A string of letters can never equal a number.

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9

InputAnswer = input("Answer Here: ") if InputAnswer == Answer:     print('Nice Job!')     time.sleep(1) else:     print('OOF! Better luck next time')     print(type(InputAnswer), type(Answer))     time.sleep(1)     print('The real answer is %s' % Answer)

For the time limit, you'll need multithreading and set up a race condition. Essentially, you need two threads - one for user input and one for the timer. The timer thread would send a null answer after three seconds once activated. So, the user will have to provide an answer before the timer does.

I posted code here to take user input with a timeout. You could use it here.
