Why does the first item in the list come out as incorrect ?

Question

When given the question with the first item (1<5) in the list. Inputing the answer 5 which is stored in another list gives me incorrect, the rest of the items in list work perfect. I’m still in intermediate level in python. Does somehow know what’s wrong with my code?

Answer 1

Rearrange your list, inside each quotation Marks seperate them with commas
The greater than sign is a comparism operator and will only give you a Boolean value

import random

question_string = ["5, 1", "2, 1", "3, 1"]
question_answers = [5 , 2 , 3]

a = random.choice(question_string)
print(a)

for i in a:
a == question_answers

user_input = input("Which number is bigger?: ")

for x in a:
if x == user_input:
print("Correct")
break
else:
print("Incorrect")
break

Also try to write the larger values before the smaller value

Answer 2

Hi

You need to convert your input into an integrer for comparison and also you need to check for the specific location.
I am a beginner myself so excuse me for messing up your code, but this seems to work:
import random

question_string = ["1<5", "2>1", "3>1"]
question_answers = [5, 2, 3]

a = random.choice(question_string)
print(a)

y= question_string.index(a)
for i in a:
a == question_answers

user_input = input("Which number is bigger?: ")
print(user_input)

stuff= question_answers[y]
print (stuff)

if int(stuff) == int(user_input):
print("correct")
else:
print("incorrect")

print(user_input)
print(stuff)

for x in a:
if x == stuff:
print("Correct")
break
else:
print("Incorrect")
break

Answer 3

You can try this code I wrote, I made it a loop with continue and break statement so the program doesn't end when user input wrong answer

I'm also a beginner and I hope this helps

import random

while True:
numbers = ["4, 6", "7, 8", "10, 2", "4 ,20"]
answers = ["6", "8", "10", "20"]
incorrect_answers = ["4", "7", "2"]

a = random.choice(numbers)
print(a)

userinput = input("Enter the bigger number: ")

if userinput in answers:
print(userinput, "Is the correct answer!")
break

elif userinput in incorrect_answers:
print(userinput, "is not the correct answer, try again")
continue

else:
print("Invalid input, try again!")
