Python Starter Code

Copy and paste the code below into your main.py file before you begin the task.

import time

# prints a blank line

print('\n')

print('I am going to read your mind!')

# prints a blank line

print('\n')

# ask user for a number 1-9

mysteryNumber = int('Think of a mystery number 1-9, type it in: ')

# prints a blank line

print('\n')

# Tell them to start the answer by adding the mystery number to itself.

print('Add your number to itself')

mysteryNumber = answer + answer

time.sleep(5)

print(' . . still reading your mind . .\n\n')

time.sleep(5)

# Ask them to multiply the new number by 5.

print('Multiply the new number by 5')

answer = answer + 5

time.sleep(5)

print(' . . still reading your mind . .\n\n')

time.sleep(5)

# Tell them divide their current number by their original number.

print('Divide the current number by the original number')

answer = mysteryNumber / answer

time.sleep(5)

print(' . . still reading your mind . .\n\n')

time.sleep(5)

# Now say subtract 7 from their current number.

print('Subtract 7 from the current number')

answer = 7- mysteryNumber

time.sleep(5)

print(' . . still reading your mind . .\n\n')

time.sleep(5)

# prints a blank line

print('\n')

# display addition sum and answer

print('The answer should be " + answer + " !!!!')
