Raw Input If Statements Python [duplicate]

Answer 1

raw_input() returns a string, you are using a number in your if statements, change this line:

menu = raw_input("1.)Ply Da Dogi gam\n2.)Halp\n")

to this:

menu = int(raw_input("1.)Ply Da Dogi gam\n2.)Halp\n"))

You will want to look in dealing with error conditions next though.

Answer 2

As you add more options, the if statements get unwieldly. Try out this dictionary based structure instead.

def menu():
    print ("dogz r a supar hahrd tin 2 matsr it tak yrs 2 mastr ut u nw git 2 "
           "exprince it. pik a tin 2 du:\n")
    prompt = "1.)Ply Da Dogi gam\n2.)Halp\n"
    {'1': game, '2': helpGame}.get(raw_input(prompt), menu)()
