Hi Everyone,
Im trying to put together this number guessing "game" together as part of a
larger "text-based adventure game" app (the final project of Learn Python
the Hard Way), and am wondering if there was a way change a variable in my
application without the page being refreshed. I understand that html files
are "stateless", so that may be affecting why when I write this code (or a
variation of) below, it doesn't work.
num, guess = session.room.generate() # a function used to generate a
random number for the user to guess and how many tries they get.
if form.action != num: # form.action is user input
guess -= 1
session.room.output = "BZZT. Access Denied. You have %d tries
left." % guess # session.room.output is what the user sees as a result of
their actions
if guess == 0:
session.room = session.room.go('*') # moves user to a game
over screen, pretty much.
elif form.action == num:
session.room = session.room.go('next')
....
I've thought about using session variables, but even after i set one up
(and I don't even know if i did it correctly), the result is the same.
session.room.output always stays at nine. and the user never gets out of
that "room". I don't know if this makes much sense...
But does anyone know how I can achieve getting the variable "guess" down to
zero if the user doesn't input the correct number? Thanks.
