"I was doing the follow exercise:
A gymnast can earn a score between 1 and 10 from each judge.
Print out a series of sentences, "A judge can give a gymnast _ points." Don't worry if your first sentence reads "A judge can give a gymnast 1 points." However, you get 1000 bonus internet points if you can use a for loop, and have correct grammar.
My code is this:
scores = (tuple(range(1,11)))
for score in scores:
print (f'A judge can give a gymnast {score} points.')
And my output of course was:
A judge can give a gymnast 1 points.
A judge can give a gymnast 2 points.
A judge can give a gymnast 3 points.
A judge can give a gymnast 4 points.
A judge can give a gymnast 5 points.
A judge can give a gymnast 6 points.
A judge can give a gymnast 7 points.
A judge can give a gymnast 8 points.
A judge can give a gymnast 9 points.
A judge can give a gymnast 10 points.
The question is: How can I correct the grammar in my loop? I mean, when is "1 point" how can I make my loop to say "1 point" and not "1 points" and for the others scores maintain the "points"?
Heres another way of doing it. The answer above may(I don't know) be more efficient, in my opinion this is more readable for future developers.
scores = (tuple(range(1,11)))
for score in scores:
if score == 1:
print ('A judge can give a gymnast 1 point.')
else:
print (f'A judge can give a gymnast {score} points.')
