python while statement with for loop-CodePudding

I am trying to iterate through a dictionary and get user response.

At the second to last question, I want to specifically declare that there is one more question left.

I am having trouble combining a while statement with for loop. This is my code:

# my dictionary

q_dict = {"where are we? " : "usa",
          "who are you? " : "jon",
          "how old are you? " : 22}

# my function 

def q_prompt(question, answer):

    response = input(question)

    if response != answer:

        print("incorrect")

    else:

        print("correct!")


# having trouble here with this logic combining for loop and while     

run = 1

for key, val in q_dict.items():
    
    q_prompt(key, val)
    

    while run < (len(q_dict)-1):
        print("on to the next question")
        run  = 1

    else:
        print("on to the last question")  # i would like this to print when there is one more question left  

    print("no more questions")

after the user responds to "who are you", I want the program to say "on to the last question". then when the program is done (after user answers the last question", it says "no more questions". I am having trouble iterating through each question and increasing the value of 'run'. Running this code does not get the desired result.

CodePudding user response：

I'm not sure why you'd want to use a while loop here. Why not just have an if-statement like so:

q_dict = {"where are we? " : "usa",
          "who are you? " : "jon",
          "how old are you? " : 22}

for key, val in q_dict.items():
    
    q_prompt(key, val)
    

    if key != list(q_dict.keys())[-2]:
        print("on to the next question")

    else:
        print("on to the last question")  # i would like this to print when there is one more question left  

print("no more questions")

Note, I've also un-indented your final print statement since otherwise it will execute on every iteration.
