How to matched random number using input function

September 28, 2022

How can i matched the random generated number in input function?
my if and else statement don’t run because even i inputted the random number, they don’t match. here is my code below.

import random
randomNumber=[]
length_randomNumber = 6

for i in range(length_randomNumber):
    randomNumber.append(random.randint(0,9))
print(randomNumber)

x = input("Enter the 6 generated number :")
if x == randomNumber:
    print("x and random number matched!")
else:
    print("x don't matched with the random number!")

>Solution :

Here the problem occurs due to x = input("Enter the 6 generated number :").
The x here is of string type.

What you can do instead is this:

for i in range(length_randomNumber):
    randomNumber.append(random.randint(0,9))
print(randomNumber)

x = input("Enter the 6 generated number, seperated by commas :")
x = [int(y) for y in x.split(",")]
if x == randomNumber:
    print("x and random number matched!")
else:
    print("x don't matched with the random number!")

Here you convert the input to an integer array and compare.
Above we used a list comprehension to do that.
