Project 8: Quiz Game

A simple quiz that asks questions from a list of dicts and scores the answers.

The goal

Store questions and answers, ask each one, and print the final score.

What you practice

• Lists of dictionaries
• Loops
• Comparison
• Input handling

Starter code

questions = [
    {"question": "What is 2 + 2?", "answer": "4"},
    {"question": "What color is a banana?", "answer": "yellow"},
    {"question": "How many days in a leap year?", "answer": "366"}
]

score = 0

for q in questions:
    reply = input(q["question"] + " ")
    if reply.lower() == q["answer"].lower():
        print("Correct!")
        score += 1
    else:
        print("Wrong!")

print(f"Score: {score}/{len(questions)}")

Step-by-step
