We Keep Coding

Boolean does not control while loop for me

All of this code does not get affected by a SIGKILL command and my while loop continues no matter what condition
Code:
if Play == False:
signal.SIGKILL(0)
if gameplayint == "N":
print("What are you doing here then?")
Play == False
if gameplayint == "Y":
Play == True
time.sleep(0.5)
print("We will start now.")
#Start the game.
print("")
#Actual gameplay block of code
#game start
while Play == True:
pcNum = random.randint(1,19)
anotherNum = True
total = 0
while anotherNum == True:
playerNum = random.randint(1,10)
total = total + playerNum
print("")
print("Your number is ", str(playerNum) + ".")
print("You have " + str(total) + " in total.")
print("")
again = input("Roll another number? <Y or N> ")
print("")
if again == "Y":
anotherNum = True
else:
anotherNum = False
break
#game finished now
print("Computer got", pcNum)
print("You got", total)
#checking for winner
while anotherNum == False:
if (total <= 13) and (total > pcNum):
print("You,", name, "have won!")
elif (pcNum <= 13) and (pcNum > total):
print("The computer has bested you,", name + "!")
else:
if (total == pcNum) and (total <= 13):
print("Draw...")
elif (pcNum > 13) and (total <= 13):
print("You,", name + " have won!")
else:
print("Both of you have lost. Wow...")
again = input("Try again? <Y or N>")
if again == "Y":
Play = True
else:
Play = False
print("Goodbye now.")
Output:
What's your name? Y
Very well then Y, do you want to play 13? <Y or N> N
What are you doing here then?
Your number is 3.
You have 3 in total.
The issue here is that despite N being outputted on the gameplayint variable, the while loop still continues instead of stopping the output entirely.

establishing a win streak in dice game

Hi all. Really, REALLY stuck here. I've updated my code below.
I'm trying to establish a counter to track games played, correct guesses and > incorrect guesses plus, when the number of consecutive correct guesses
= 4 or user stops playing, game summary is provided.
I cannot get the counter to work correctly.
Help appreciated!

You look very lost here. This part does not make any sense
def win_count():
win_count() == 0
correct == total_roll_result
I think you mean something like this
win_count = 0
correct = total_roll_result == roll_guess
Note
When you say
def win_count:
# some code
you are defining win_count as a function! But clearly you want win_count to be an integer counting something.

Python Random Number Guessing Game (cant get the average guess right)

I'm newly introduced to Python but I am now currently stuck with this code of mine where I just can't get the average guess game per game to work. If I could receive some help from you guys that'll be great! I would also love to hear any constructive feedback if there's any. Thank you!!

how can i reset te score variable after every loop so they dont add up?

so i have run this code 3 times as there is 3 loops, however after every loop, the score variable seems to add itself on from the previous loop for e.g 1st loop (first user) gets a score of 2, then 2nd user get 4 and the last user gets 6. when i want to individually output all 3 users scores seperately, the code just adds on the scores. therefore this results in false scores. any solution to fix the score variable to reset every loop but still be attached to the 'schooldata[x]['score']' (x being the user number for e.g user 2 score would be 'schooldata[1]['score']) and which this outputs 3 seperate scores, specific to each user.
score = 0
schooldata = []
for x in range (0,3):
quiz = dict()
print ("Enter your name")
quiz['name'] = input()
print ("what class")
quiz['class_code'] = input()
print("1. 9+10=")
answer = input()
answer = int(answer)
if answer == 19:
print("correct")
score = score + 1
else:
print("wrong")

answer = int(answer)

How do i fix the error in my hangman game in Python 3

This code is from a small game i've been working on over the past day or so, i know i shouldn't really post the whole code but i'm not entirely sure which part of the code is not working as intended, any help would be appreciated. the code is a hangman game and i am aware of the huge amount of repetition in the code but am unsure how to reduce it to one of every function that will work with each difficulty setting.

NameError: name 'words' is not defined
I'm not sure what is wrong with words or how to fix it.

Your words variable is only defined in the scope of build_word_list function.
All the other functions don't recognize it so you can't use it there.
You can have a "quickfix" by defining it as a global variable, although usually using global variables isn't the best practice and you might want to consider some other solution like passing words to your other functions that use it or use it within the confines of a class.
(If avoiding global variables interests you, maybe you would like to read this and this)

You have words defined in the method build_word_list.
You should declare words as a global variable so that it can be accessed everywhere or restructure you program into a class and use self to reference it.
