Need help in a script

Victor · June 20, 2011, 2:37am

Concept:
I am trying to write a program in which the Program will ask the User
a series of questions.

For example:

1. What is your name?

* The User inputs their name

* The User press enter

*Question number 1 disappears

*Another question appears

2. What is your age?

*User Inputs age

*The User press enter

***The program calculates

3. Outputs - "You have given me 2 pieces of information.

Specifically I do not know how to approach on making the Questions
disappear and then replaced.

username = wx.GetTextFromUser('What is your name?', 'Name?' )
    userage = wx.GenNumberFromUser('What is your age?', 'Age', 21, 0, 150)
    # Do your calculations here!
    ans = wx.MessgeBox('Hello %s\nYou have given me 2 pieces of
information.')

In a wx.PythonSimpleApp should do the job - take a look at the Demo code
in the wxPython docs and demo package.

Of course if you do not need dialogue boxes and just need to run from
the command prompt take a look at the python curses package - it should
give you just about all you are likely to need.

Thanks, that definitely points me in the right direction…

Of course if you do not need dialogue boxes and just need to run from
the command prompt take a look at the python curses package - it should
give you just about all you are likely to need.

For something this simple, you don't even need curses -- a plain old command line and raw-input() will do it.

I would assume that he will be dealing with users who have a deathly fear of or don’t know what to do with a command line.

I deal with those kind all the time. Some don’t even read what URL they are going to (DEV vs. PRODUCTION instances of webapps)!!!

A wx.wizard.Wizard would be another way to implement this.
