Hi, I have been given a task to do. I am a new to programming and Python.
My task is to :
-Create a function that is called from the main function, that accepts a number
as a parameter and determines if the number is even or odd.
the next one is,
-To create another function that generates a random number, and basically when i print
this function, it should give me a list of random number separated by a ","
commma or in a list.
-And lastly to enhance my script to generate 10 random EVEN numbers and write
them to a .txt file.
One of your classmates has already posted the question. However, you
win the prize for a better subject line. Or are you the same student,
changing your name and wasting our time by starting a new thread.
This what I have done so far.
Where's your main function?
import random
if __name__ == '__main__':
main()
for i in range(10):
print random.randrange(0, 101, 2)
Why is everything at top level, and not inside the function(s) ?
with open ("C:\Users\Kenz09\Documents\Myproj.txt", "w") as f:
print f
f = open("C:\Users\Kenz09\Documents\Myproj.txt", "a");
That semicolon comes from another language. Very seldom any need for it
in Python.
print f
value = (
random.randrange (0, 101, 2),
random.randrange(0, 201, 2),
random.randrange(0, 301, 2)
)
The reason the instructor told you to do 10 is probably to discourage
you from typing separate statements for all 10. You're undoubtedly
supposed to use a loop.
random_numbers[0]
random_numbers[1]
random_numbers[2]
When you asigned it, you called it value, but now you expect it to have
another name?
print f.write(str(value))
print f.write(str(value1))
print f.write(str(value2))
f.close()
Why not start by doing the first statement of the assignment, and if you
can't make it work, or don't understand some part of the question, ask
again? Show your work, not just a bunch of random statements, most of
which won't execute.
If I were wording that first question, I'd say something like:
"""
Create a function that accepts a integer as a parameter and determines
if the number is even or odd, returning a boolean value accordingly.
Call that function multiple times from the main function, with a variety
of values, indicating for each whether it's even or odd.
