I was having a bit of trouble with this code that I wrote in Python 2.7. It's giving me a syntax error on the elif statement, but there's no explanation and I can't find any reasonable error in the code. (typeline is a method I defined.)
num = randrange(-25,15)
""" Toxic """
if num >= -25 and num < -10:
responses = ["Ugh, nasty.", "That was absolutely disgusting.", "My stomach feels like it's going to explode.", "Pardon me if I puke."]
typeline(responses[randrange(0,4)], "jack")
return [num, "Jack ate a VERY TOXIC FRUIT and survived.", "Jack ate a VERY TOXIC FRUIT and died."]
""" Mildly poisonous """
elif num >= -10 and num < 0: """ SYNTAX ERROR HERE """
responses = ["Yuck", "It's kinda bitter.", "Tastes like an unripe banana.", "It's not so bad."]
typeline(responses[randrange(0,4)], "jack")
return [num, "Jack ate a MILDLY TOXIC FRUIT and survived.", "Jack ate a MILDLY TOXIC FRUIT and died."]
""" Healthy """
else:
responses = ["Definitely not too bad", "It's almost kind of tasty!", "Should I make a jam out of this?", "This is my new favorite fruit."]
typeline(responses[randrange(0,4)], "jack")
return [num, "Jack ate a HEALTHY FRUIT and was rescued.", "Jack ate HEALTHY FRUIT and survived."]
The error:
File "", line 9
elif num >= -10 and num < 0:
^
SyntaxError: invalid syntax
解決方案
You have an unindented triple-quoted string literal right before the elif:
""" Mildly poisonous """
elif num >= -10 and num < 0:
"""...""" string literals are not multi-line comments. They create strings, and only because you then ignore the string object produced does Python ignore the line. They are still part of the Python syntax; you can't ignore indentation rules when you use them.
Use proper # comments instead:
# Toxic
if num >= -25 and num < -10:
# ...
# Mildly poisonous
elif num >= -10 and num < 0:
# ...
# Healthy
else:
# ...
Since comments are ignored altogether by the syntax, it doesn't matter how they are indented.
If you must use """ ... """ triple-quoted strings as 'block comments', you must indent them to be part of the if or elif block they are placed in:
""" Toxic """
if num >= -25 and num < -10:
# ...
""" Mildly poisonous """
elif num >= -10 and num < 0:
# ...
""" Healthy """
else:
# ...
