Overview: The Trivia Challenge Game tests a players knowledge with a series of multiple-choice questions. The game delivers the questions as a single episode. The episode created as an example is about The Office and is called, The Office. All of the questions relate in some way to The Office. The cool thing about the game is that the questions for an episode are stored in a separate file, independent of the game code. This way, its easy to play different ones. Even better, this means that anyone with a text editor can create their own trivia episode about whatever topic they chooseanything from anime to zoology.

With the basics of files under your belt, its time to tackle the Trivia Challenge game. As youll see in the code, the text file the program reads, trivia.txt, needs to be in the same directory at the program file. To create your own episode full of questions, all you need to do is replace this file with one containing your own work.

Save as: triviaChallengeGame_yourLastName.py

Understanding the Data File Layout

Before we work on the actually game, you should understand exactly how the trivia.txt file is structured.

The very first line of the file is the title of the episode. The rest of the file consists of blocks of eight lines for each question. You can have as many blocks (and thus questions) as you like. Take a look at the text file I posted as an example.

Here is a generic block:

Take a look at the sample

Remember the first line of the file, The Office, is the episode title for this game. The next eight lines are for the first question. The next eight lines are for the second question. So, the line Who Said It? is the category of the first question. The category is just a clever way to introduce the next question. The next line, Who said is the first question in the game. The next four lines are the four possible answers from which the player will choose. So in this case, the correct answer to the question is the forth answer. The next line, Jim was imitating Dwight, explains why the correct answer is correct. The rest of the questions follow the same pattern.

Follow the pseudocode (below) and complete the program.

Requirements:

• Add you own trivia questions. Minimum of 10. You can choose any topic you like. Must be school appropriate and non-offensive. Hint, your text file should have a total of 81 lines. 1 for the title + 8 for each question * 10 = 81.
• Your python program should run for any number of questions in the text file (not just 10). It should run until there are no more questions to read in.
• Work on the python code FIRST. Use my sample trivia file posted in the mean time. Once that is up and running, then develop your 10 trivia questions.
• You are writing this game (theoretically) for SOMEONE ELSE to play. Therefore, make the interface user-friendly and easy to read.

# Ask a question by printing the category of the question, the question, and the four possible answers.

# Its important to note that the trivia file does not have numbers next to the possible answer, you
