Inside {} you can put newlines as much as you like:
'Arkansas': 'Little Rock', 'California': 'Sacramento',
'Colorado': 'Denver', 'Connecticut': 'Hartford',
'Delaware': 'Dover', 'Florida': 'Tallahassee',
etc...
for k in capitals.keys():
state = input('Enter the capital of '+k+' :')
This loop just keeps reading the inputs but does nothing with them.
I suspect you intended to have the following lines inside the loop?
if state.upper() == capitals[k].upper():
right += 1
print('Correct')
else:
wrong += 1
print('Incorrect')
choice = input('Do you want to play again y/n: ')
if choice.upper() == 'N':
print('end of game')
You need to provide a mechanism for exiting the loop.
The break statement can do that for you.
else:
choice.upper() != 'Y'
print("invalid choice")
print('Number of correct answers is: ', right)
print("Number of incorrect answers is:", wrong)
