Python Maths Quiz - how to make sure random Num 1 is larger than Num 2 & number of loops = user input

Question

import random
def mathsQuiz():
noQns = int(input("Enter number of questions per level: "))
counter = 0
if counter <= noQns:
level1num1 = random.randint(1,9)
level1num2 = random.randint(1,9)
if level1num1 > level1num2:
counter = counter + 1
randomsym = random.choice(["+","-"])
print("Level 1")
ans = input("{} {} {} = ".format(level1num1, randomsym,level1num2))
print(ans)
counter = counter + 1
else: #level1num1 < level1num2:
counter = counter - 1

Answer 1

To make the required number of loops, you say

for i in range(no_of_loops):

You can't make sure that one random number is greater than another random number as such, but you can pick Num 1 to be the higher of the two, and Num 2 to be the lower. Using the max() and min() methods, this can be done quite easily.

level1num1, level1num2 = max(level1num1, level1num2), min(level1num1, level1num2)

Answer 2

Great! It works perfectly. Thank you Russ !
