Question

Create a program that solves programming exercise below. Within this folder is the file state_capitals.txt. The file is organized with a state name on a line and the next line has its capital. Your program should read this in and create a dictionary from this file. Then use this dictionary to create a quiz, ask the user for 5 random choice states and give the results back at end.

Write a program that creates a dictionary containing the U.S. States as keys and their
capitals as values.
(Use the internet to get a list of the states and their capitals.) ALREADY INSIDE state_capitals.txt. 
The program should then randomly quiz the user by displaying the name of a state and asking
the usr to enter that state's capital.
The program should keep a count of the number of correct and incorrect responses.
(As an alternative to the US states, the program can use the names of countries and
their capitals.)"""

# do comment if any problem arises

# code

import random

# open file

infile = open("state_capitals.txt", "r")

states_capitals = {}

# read all lines

lines = infile.readlines()

# close file

infile.close()

i = 0

# create a dictionary using while loop

while i < len(lines):

    # state

    state = lines[i]

    state = state.rstrip('\n')

    # capital

    capital = lines[i+1]

    capital = capital.rstrip('\n')

    # go to next to next line

    i += 2

    # add to dictionary

    states_capitals[state] = capital

# create a list of states for choosing random state

states = list(states_capitals.keys())

score = 0

# ask user 5 questions

for i in range(5):

    # choose random state

    state = states[random.randint(0, len(states)-1)]

    # read answer of user

    capital = input(f'What is capital of {state}: ')

    capital = capital.lower()

    answer = states_capitals[state].lower()

    # if user answer is correct

    if capital == answer:

        score += 1

# print score

print(f'Your score is: {score}')
