Hello! I'm starting to learn python and are doing a "big" assigment for my programming course.
I'm having trouble how to structuralize my code, I have gotten some not that good feedback so I could really use some help.
What am I doing wrong?
This is my code so far.
#31/03-15 For the introduction type effect
import sys
from time import sleep
#31/03-15 The players inventory, at each "checkpoint" the player should be able to check his/hers inventory.
inventory = []
#31/03-15 The main function print the "menu" of the game, it introduces the player tp the game.
def main():
print("Welcome to <spelnamn>")
print("Hints:")
print("Inventory:")
print("Help")#Don't know if I want this function yet. 2/4-15
flag = True
while flag:
Start = input("Type start to begin: ")
if Start == "start":
#31/03-15 if the player types "start" the textfile Introduction will be printed out on the scree, with a "type writer" effect.
Introduction = open("Introduction.txt","r")
for x in Introduction:
for letter in x:
sys.stdout.write(letter)
sys.stdout.flush()#31/03-15 Python's standard out is buffered (meaning that it collects some of the data "written" to standard out before it writes it to the terminal). Calling sys.stdout.flush() forces it to "flush" the buffer, meaning that it will write everything in the buffer to the terminal, even if normally it would wait before doing so.
sleep(0.050)
flag = False
elif Start != "start":
#31/03-15 if the player type anything else other than "start" "Follow the instructions" will be printed out and will loop back the player.
print("Follow the instructions!")
#main()
#The player finds a flashlight and batteries in the emergency box, they are both added to the inventory.

print("A flashlight and some batteries are added to your inventory\n")
addToInventory("flashlight")
addToInventory("batteries")
