I'm doing some python and I was making a Todo app. Everything works fine but there's an error that drives me crazy: My "add" option doesn't work. I try to enter "add" in input, but nothing happens and I just get a new line asking me to enter either add, edit, show etc...
I honestly don't understand where my mistake is, normally I'd type "add" and I'd have an option that would allow me to add a new thing to do
The code:
while True:
user_action = input("Please right add, edit, show, complete or exit: ")
user_action = user_action.strip()
if "add" in user_action:
todo = user_action[4:]
with open("app.txt", "r") as file:
todos = file.readlines()
todos.append(todo)
with open("app.txt", "w") as file:
file.writelines(todos)
elif "show" in user_action:
with open("app.txt", "r") as file:
todos = file.readlines()
for index, item in enumerate(todos):
item = item.strip("\n")
row = f"{index +1}-{item}"
print(row)
elif "edit" in user_action:
number = int(user_action[5:])
print(number)
number = number -1
with open("app.txt", "r") as file:
todos = file.readlines()
new_todo = input("Right the new sing to do please : ")
todos[number] = new_todo + "\n"
with open("app.txt", "w") as file:
file.writelines(todos)
elif "complete" in user_action:
number = int(user_action[9:])
with open("app.txt", "r") as file:
todos = file.readlines()
index = number -1
todo_to_remove = todos[index].strip("\n")
todos.pop(index)
with open("app.txt", "w") as file:
file.writelines(todos)
message = ("Todo " + todo_to_remove + " has been completed and deleted from your list ")
print(message)
elif "exit" in user_action:
break
else :
print("Please right one of the command indicated)")
print("Goodbye, i hope to see you soon!")
