Exercise 14: Tips and Delivery

Let's use argv and raw_input to ask the user some special questions. Next exercise you will learn how to read and write files, this exercise is the basis of the next section. In this exercise we will use raw_input in a slightly different way, and let it play a simple > as a prompt. This is similar to some of the games, such as the Zork or Adventure two games.

We set the user prompt to variable prompt so that we do not need to repeatedly enter the characters that prompt the user each time we use Raw_input. And if you want to change the prompt to a different string, you just have to change one location.

It's very handy.

The results you should see

When you run this script, remember that you need to assign your name to the script and let the argv parameter receive your name.

Bonus points Exercise

1. Check how Zork and Adventure are two games. See if you can download it to a version and then play it.
