I'm working on a small program to add users to a sqlite db.
Try the database topic in my tutorial where I do a very similar
thing...
code follows -------------
def promptInput():
...
result = (lname, fname, email)
return result
def getEmplyInfo():
# get the data from input
result = promptInput()
# print the data so the user can check and verify spelling
print "Is the following info correct [y/n]\n%s, %s %s" %
(result[1], \
result[0], result[2])
check = raw_input()
#see if the user needs to make corrections to the data he entered
if check == "y":
print "this check is done so we can add user"
print "%s, %s %s" % (result[1], result[0], result[2])
else:
check = ""
promptInput()
---------------------------
The if else loop is were I'm loosing it.
if else is not a loop it is a branch.
See the What is Profgramming topic in my tutorial for a description
of the different structures. Then see the loops and branching topics
for loop and branch structures. You need a loop. The topics give
examples.
