Hi how do i solve this ?

[Houston222]

Hi, right now what happens is that my codes shown below will print out error even when a wrong answer is inserted, this error message under the else is meant to only be shown when a user key in an input that is invalid, how do i make sure the error code DO NOT show even when the answer is wrong . Thank you

while True:
      print("Where is Moscow located at?")
      answer1 = input("a) Russia\nb) China\nc) Japan\nd) Mongolia\nAnswer: ")
      if answer1 == "a" or answer1 == "Russia":
            print("Right Answer!")
            break
      if answer1 == "b" or answer1 == "China":
            print("Wrong Answer!")
      if answer1 == "c" or answer1 == "Japan":
            print("Wrong Answer!")
      if answer1 == "d" or answer1 == "Mongolia":
            print("Wrong Answer!")
      else:
            print("Error!")

Well, assuming your indentation is all fixed up in your actual program, I would just do this a different way:

while True:
    print("In which country is Moscow located?")
    answer1 = input("a) Russia\nb) China\nc) Japan\nd) Mongolia\nAnswer: ")
    if answer1 == "a" or answer1 == "Russia":
        print("Right Answer!")
        break
    elif answer1 != "a" or answer1 != "Russia":
        print('Incorrect!')
        break
    else:
        print('Error!')

Logic is, "if answer is a or china, print correct... if it's not a or china (anything else), print incorrect.

Hm, the code works.
Maybe you've missed an indentation. We can't see it here, because white space are stripped away, if you don't put you code into code tags.

This works, but you can simplify this very much.

while True:
    print("Where is Moscow located at?")
    answer1 = input("a) Russia\nb) China\nc) Japan\nd) Mongolia\nAnswer: ")
    if answer1 == "a" or answer1 == "Russia":
        print("Right Answer!")
        break
    if answer1 == "b" or answer1 == "China":
        print("Wrong Answer!")
    if answer1 == "c" or answer1 == "Japan":
        print("Wrong Answer!")
    if answer1 == "d" or answer1 == "Mongolia":
        print("Wrong Answer!")
    else:
        print("Error!")

The simpler version:

while True:
    print("Where is Moscow located at?")
    answer1 = input("a) Russia\nb) China\nc) Japan\nd) Mongolia\nAnswer: ")
    if answer1 == "a" or answer1 == "Russia":
        print("Right Answer!")
        break

You can do it once right and make a function for it:

Hide/Show

from string import ascii_lowercase as lowercase


def ask(question, answers, correct_answer_index, strip_whitespace=True, max_tries=None):
    incorrect_answers = 0
    correct_answer_char = lowercase[correct_answer_index]
    # a for 0
    # b for 1
    # c for 2 ...
    while True:
        print(f'{question}')
        for answer, char in zip(answers, lowercase):
            print(f'{char}) {answer}')
        answer = input('Answer: ')
        if strip_whitespace:
            answer = answer.strip()
            char = char.strip()
        if answer == answers[correct_answer_index] or answer == correct_answer_char:
            print('Right Answer!')
            break
        else:
            print('Wrong Answer!')
            incorrect_answers += 1
            if max_tries is not None and max_tries <= incorrect_answers:
                print('Maximum limit of wrong answers are reached')
                break
    return incorrect_answers

Then you can make a simple quiz:

fails = 0
fails += ask('Where is Berlin located', ['Saturn', 'Mars', 'Germany'], 2, strip_whitespace=True, max_tries=3)
fails += ask('Where is Beijing located', ['Russia', 'China', 'Spain'], 1, strip_whitespace=True, max_tries=3)
fails += ask('What is 0xFF', ['16', '255', '32'], 1, strip_whitespace=True, max_tries=3)
print(f'End of game. You answered {fails} times wrong')

What's missing is case insensitivity. So if you answer "china" but the right answer is "China", then it counts as wrong answer.

Task: Add case insensitivity

while True:
    print("Where is Moscow located at?")
    answer = input("a) Russia\nb) China\nc) Japan\nd) Mongolia\nAnswer: ")
    if answer.lower() in ("a", "russia"):
        print("Right Answer!")
        break
    else:
        print("wrong answer")
