I need help for a Python game I am currently creating. When running the code it will stay open and do nothing after entering a number of times to flip. Here is what I have so far:
# Heads and Tails generator
# User how many times they wish to flip a coin and will recieve the results
CoinTosses = int(input("How many coins do you wish to flip: "))
Heads = 0
Tails = 0
CurrentCoinToss = 0
from random import randint
while CoinTosses != 0:
CurrentCoinToss == int(randint(1, 2))
if CurrentCoinToss == 1:
Heads += 1
CoinTosses -= 1
if CurrentCoinToss == 2:
Tails += 1
CoinTosses -= 1
print("During this round you recieved: ", Heads, " and", Tails, " Tails!")
input("Press the enter key to exit")
What is wrong with this? I have studied my code and nothing SHOULD be wrong.
Change this line
CurrentCoinToss == int(randint(1, 2))
to this
CurrentCoinToss = int(randint(1, 2))
In the while loop you've written:
CurrentCoinToss == int(randint(1, 2))
Which actually tests the value of CurrentCoinToss, but doesn't give it a value.
Change it by:
CurrentCoinToss = int(randint(1, 2))

In python I got a "TypeError: 'int' object is not callable" during execution.
I had read other posts but I still can't figure out why it is like this.
# Python code to find if a number is
# prime or not using divmod()
# Given integer
n = int(input("Enter a number"))
x = n
# Initialising counter to 0
count = 0
while x != 0:
p, q = divmod(n, x)
x -= 1
if q == 0:
count += 1
if count > 2:
print(n, 'is Not Prime')
else:
print(n, 'is Prime')
And, please note that it doesn't gives any error by replacing:
n = int(input("Enter a number")) to n = int(input("Enter a number"))
I have also provided a screenshot regarding my problem 👇

Answer if anybody knows, Appreciation for any suggestions and comments.
Have you tried something like this?
z = input("Enter a number")
n = int(z)
x = n

import random
def coinToss():
number = input("Number of times to flip coin: ")
recordList = []
heads = 0
tails = 0
for amount in range(number):
flip = randint(0, 1)
if: (flip == 0):
print("Heads")
recordList.append("Heads")
else:
print("Heads")
recordList.append("Tails")
print(str(recordList))
print(str(recordList.count("Heads")) + str(recordList.count("Tails")))
I am wondering what is going wrong here. it says there is a syntax error in the if statement. I am just trying to make a basic coin flip app.
Ill put my error here:
{
"resource": "/c:/Users/liamd/Documents/Programming
Files/Python/Cointoss.py",
"owner": "python",
"code": "syntax-error",
"severity": 8,
"message": "invalid syntax (<unknown>, line 10)",
"source": "pylint",
"startLineNumber": 10,
"startColumn": 1,
"endLineNumber": 10,
"endColumn": 1
}
I fixed your code and it came out to this.
import random
def coinToss():
number = input("Number of times to flip coin: ")
recordList = []
heads = 0
tails = 0
for amount in range(int(number)):
flip = random.randint(0, 1)
if flip == 0:
print("Heads")
heads += 1
recordList.append("Heads")
else:
print("Tails")
tails += 1
recordList.append("Tails")
return recordList
list = coinToss()
print("Heads: "+str(list.count("Heads")), "Tails: "+str(list.count("Tails")))
There were a lot of errors, and you should look into it before posting it on Stack Overflow
Remove ":" after "if", put it only at the end of the line.
So:
if (condition):
do something
else:
do something else

I'm getting a syntax error on my 2nd while loop. Can't figure out why, any help appreciated :)
#intro
print("Welcome to my prime number detector.")
print("Provide an integer and I will determine if it is prime.")
#again loop
again = "Y"
while again == "Y":
num = (int(input("Enter an integer"))
#check for valid input
while num < 1:
num = (int(input("Enter an integer"))
#test for prime
for d in range(2,num):
if (num % d) == 0:
print(num,"is not prime.")
else:
print(num,"is prime.")
#ask again
again = intput("Do you want to play again? (Y/N)")
You are missing a closing parenthesis ) in the two of your following lines. The correct line of code is
num = (int(input("Enter an integer")))
Also, as sheepez mentioned below, your outer brackets are redundant. You can simply use
num = int(input("Enter an integer"))

I am trying to make a random number guessing game but I cant get the if statement to check if the users input is = to the random number
import random
realNumber = random.randint(1, 50)
print(realNumber)
myNumber = print(input("Guess the number from 1 to 50: "))
if int(myNumber) == realNumber:
print("You win")
else:
print("Nope guess again")
The unintended behavior of your program is due to this line:
myNumber = print(input("Guess the number from 1 to 50: "))
Here, you are trying to assign myNumber to the return value of the print statement (Which is None) and not the value obtained from the input() statement. To fix this, simply remove the print() around the input.
myNumber = input("Guess the number from 1 to 50: ")
Hope this helped!
You don't need the print statement around input.
import random
realNumber = random.randint(1, 50)
print(realNumber)
myNumber = input("Guess the number from 1 to 50: ")
if int(myNumber) == realNumber:
print("You win")
else:
print("Nope guess again")
Note that this code will not work if the user enters something besides an integer, because the int() call will not cast correctly

I'm a beginner to python, and when trying to see if I could make a simple program myself, I ran into this problem:
class y:
def out(self):
print("restarting")
choice = y
choice.out
while choice == y: # loop until user stops
while j >= 0: # loop until j < 0
print('lives:', j)
j = j - 1
print('out of lives!')
print('restart?')
choice = input(' Y or N ') # Ask user to restart or not
Everything works once, but Python seems to ignore the first loop (while choice == y). Have I forgotten a step, or am I doing this wrong altogether?
I don't think you need a class y here. If you just want to loop until choice isn't the character "y", then you can use ordinary strings.
choice = "y"
while choice == "y": # loop until user stops
j = 3
while j >= 0: # loop until j < 0
print('lives:', j)
j = j - 1
print('out of lives!')
print('restart?')
choice = input(' Y or N ') # Ask user to restart or not
Result:
lives: 3
lives: 2
lives: 1
lives: 0
out of lives!
restart?
Y or N y
lives: 3
lives: 2
lives: 1
lives: 0
out of lives!
restart?
Y or N n
The program loops until the user enters a value other than "y".
