Hit and miss

Question

score = 100
count= 0
shoot1= str(input())
shoot2= str(input())
shoot3= str(input())
shoot4= str(input())

while count <4:
#First shoot
if shoot1 == "hit":
score+=10
elif shoot1 == "miss":
score-=20
#Second shoot
elif shoot2 == "hit":
score+=10
elif shoot2 == "miss":
score -= 20
#Third shoot
elif shoot3 == "hit":
score+=10
elif shoot3 == "miss":
score -=20
#Forth shoot
elif shoot4 == "hit":
score +=10
elif shoot4 == "miss":
score -=20
else:
print("That\'s not a correct input")
count +=1
print(score)

My question why when I input (hit, miss, hit, miss) say me 140 instead 80

Answer 1

Thanks Murali but I want to solved by my own code, following the steps from the Application. I didn't touch yet the methods For or List, so it will not help me so much. I just want to know what it's wrong on my code. 😄

Answer 2

Solved!

score =100
x = 0
while x < 4:
y=input()
if y == "hit":
score+=10
if y == "miss":
score-=20
x+=1
print(score)

Answer 3

You only check if 'shoot1' is hit or miss each time.

Each shot needs it's own if-else statements to work right the way you coded it. Can't use elif all the way through

Answer 4

score = 100
count= 0
shoot1= input()
shoot2= input()
shoot3= input()
shoot4= input()

#First shoot
if shoot1 == "hit":
score+=10
elif shoot1 == "miss":
score-=20
#Second shoot
if shoot2 == "hit":
score+=10
elif shoot2 == "miss":
score -= 20
#Third shoot
if shoot3 == "hit":

score+=10
elif shoot3 == "miss":
score -=20
#Forth shoot
if shoot4 == "hit":
score +=10
elif shoot4 == "miss":
score -=20
else:
print("That\'s not a correct input")
count +=1
print(score)

Answer 5

ch Murali Why assume anything like that? Try not to post codes to answer a coding question. Especially with no explaination. It helps nobody learn

Answer 6

Bryan Buenaver kindly check out the above code to find out the correct answer

Answer 7

Or ch Murali and Rostislav Khalilov you could explain and not just post code.
