by giving the users a series of clues about a particular country, they can assess their geographical skills and see their accuracy in a little slice of the field of human geography.

our inspiration

americans are notorious for their lack of geography skills and understanding of the diverse cultures of the world. we wanted to create a project that's designed to tackle exactly just that as we wanted to give an opportunity for everyone to test their current geography skills and see how much they know about the different countries and the different countries in the world. we wanted to develop questions that would tell the users things about the country they are being tested on and they would have a predetermined list of countries to choose from, which they will be told before the quiz begins, and they would have to guess the country from the list based on the clues given by the particular question. not only will this test the users past knowledge but it will also tell the user new information about different world countries that they could add to their repertoire of world knowledge.

our project

what is your project? what does it do? hive a quick pitch that explains your work.

our project is a user input generated quiz game. it's intended audience are the american public, whether that be students, teachers, or anyone else! however, people of different countries are more than welcomed to take the quiz and test their skills as well. it's purpose is to help people further expand their geography skills and knowledge of countries around the world.

the quiz runs through a series of 5 questions with clues  that the user can use in aiding them in guessing the right country. after they answer a question, they get an output back based on their answer telling them whether or not they answered the question right as they progress through the quiz.

for each question the user answers they get a point added to their total number of questions answered and for every question they get right they get a point added to the number of questions they get right. at the end, the score is tallied and they get an output back telling them how many questions they got right out of the total number of questions answered.
 

our design process

we designed a series of functions, variables and lists to help us carry out the task we wanted our progran to do :

1. lists :

country_list

right_answers = []

right_length = len(right_answers)

wrong_answers = []

wrong_length = len(wrong_answers)

2. variables : 

count = 0

right = 0

3. functions :

def mainFunction(count, right): 
  count = count + 1

def wrongAnswers_shown():  
  wronganswers_length : len(wrong_answers)
  for i in range(1):
    print("These questions are wrong:", wrong_answers)

a takeaway from our project is that knowing your geography can help you out a lot without you even realizing. we live in a world where we are so disconnected from our realities, that we forget some basic human geography. our project was a way for us to keep track of this and something others can depend on as well. 

conclusion

to finally assess your knowledge and see the behind of scenes, head                          we hope that you are able to learn some new facts about countries or even ace the quiz. we appreciate you for taking the time out of your day to do this <3
