[Tutor] python question

[Daniel J Kramer]

Hi

I have just joined this list. I need some help working on a Python
application I am working on.  I am working on a quiz game where the users
gain points when the answer questions correctly.  I have written the
skeleton of the quiz with If, Elif and Else statements.  it runs perfectly.

I am very unclear on how to score points at the end of each round and how to
import images.

Can anyone help out here or have any ideas on the best way to execute this?
I have included a copy of the quiz so you can get an idea of what I am
trying to do

thank you so much and I look forward to hearing from you soon

Hi Kent

got it!  Is it because Python must recognize the answer as lower case?
sorry if that might seem like a dumb question, but I am looking to
understand this program.

cheers
Daniel

[Tutor] importing images and sound

[Daniel J Kramer]

Hi

I am writing a program based around a pub quiz.  I have been able to write
the program so it runs through a series of questions and gives users a score
at the end.

I need to import a specific font, images and sound.  Does anyone know a good
place to look for tutorials for this?  At the moment, I do not know where to
begin

thank you
