I'm trying to make a multiple choice quiz using python. It seemed like something simple to make at first but now i'm scratching my head a lot trying to figure out how to do certain things.
I am using two lists; one for the questions and one for the answers. I would like to make it so that a random question is chosen from the questions list, as well as 2 random items from the answers list (wrong answers) and finally the correct answer (which has the same index as
the randomly selected question). I've got as far as selecting a random question and two random wrong answers
My first problem is getting the program to display the correct answer.
The second problem is how to check whether the user enters the correct answer or not.
I would appreciate any feedback for my code. I'm very new to this so go a little easy please! I hope my stuff is readable (sorry it's a bit long)
thanks in advance
import random
print ("Welcome to your giongo quiz\n")

wanna_begin = input("Would you like to begin?: ").lower()
if wanna_begin == ("yes"):
print ("Ok let's go!\n")
get_username()#gets the user name
elif wanna_begin != ("no") and wanna_begin != ("yes"):
print ("I don't understand, please enter yes or no:")
return begin()
elif wanna_begin == ("no"):
print ("Ok seeya!")
break
def get_username(): #get's username, checks whether it's the right length, says hello
username = input("Please choose a username (1-10 caracters):")
if len(username)>10 or len(username)<1:
print("Username too long or too short, try again")
return get_username()
else:
print ("Hello", username, ", let's get started\n\n")

This is a script to make you do fast multiple choice questions
