25.2 Python for Beginners “pull the trigger”

Question

Need some help with my code!

You are making a game! The player tries to shoot an object and can hit or miss it.
The player starts with 100 points, with a hit adding 10 points to the player’s score, and a miss deducting 20 points.

Your program needs to take 4 action results as input ("hit" or "miss"), calculate and output the player’s remaining points.

Sample Input
hit
hit
miss
hit

Sample Output
110

Explanation: 3 hits add 30 points, one miss deducts 20, making the total points equal to 110.

Answer 1

points = 100
tries = 4
while tries > 0:
result = (input())
if result == "hit":
points +=10
tries -=1 #bug
else: result == "miss" #bug
points -=20 #bug
tries -=1 #bug

print (points)

#👇debug

points = 100
tries = 4
while tries > 0:
result = input()
if result == "hit":
points +=10
elif result == "miss":
points -=20
tries -=1

print (points)

Answer 2

Thank you!!

Answer 3

points = 100
tries = 4
while tries > 0:
result = (input())
if result == "hit":
points +=10
tries -=1
else: result == "miss"
points -=20
tries -=1

print (points)
