how to do this?

Question

Create a new function in your functions.py script called getAnswer() that takes one numerical argument called answerNumber.

use the following code inside the new getAnswer() function:

if answerNumber == 1:

return 'It is certain'

elif answerNumber == 2:

return 'It is decidedly so'

elif answerNumber == 3:

return 'Yes'

elif answerNumber == 4:

return 'Reply hazy try again'

elif answerNumber == 5:

return 'Ask again later'

elif answerNumber == 6:

return 'Concentrate and ask again'

elif answerNumber == 7:

return 'My reply is no'

elif answerNumber == 8:

return 'Outlook not so good'

elif answerNumber == 9:

return 'Very doubtful'

In the ICE1.py script, use the random generator and generate a number between 1 and 9. Pass the number into the getAnswer() function and print out the users fortune.

Answer 1

from random import randint

def getAnswer(choice):

match(choice): # NOTE: match requires Python 3.10 or better

case 1: return 'It is certain'

case 2: return 'It is decidedly so'

case 3: return 'Yes'

case 4: return 'Reply hazy try again'

case 5: return 'Ask again later'

case 6: return 'Concentrate and ask again'

case 7: return 'My reply is no'

case 8: return 'Outlook not so good'

case 9: return 'Very doubtful'

case _: return 'Warning: choice not recognized'

def generateAnswer():

choice = randint(1, 9)

answer = getAnswer(choice)

print(f'{answer}')

def main():

for i in range(5): # change 5 to whatever number you wish

generateAnswer()

if __name__ == '__main__':

main()
