Python: Creating a multiple choice quiz

Question

I'm trying to write a program in python that will first, ask the user to choose a sport (football, tennis, golf or badminton) and then pick either easy, medium or hard. The program should then ask the user 5 questions about the sport with 4 choices if the user has picked 'easy', 6 if the user has picked 'medium' and 8 if the user has picked 'hard'.

Can anyone help me start this off?

There's a Python library called tkinter which you could use for this. A basic design for the selection process is below:

from tkinter import *

class App:
    def __init__(self, root):
        self.root = root
        self.x = IntVar()
        self.y = IntVar()
        self.frame = Frame(root)
        self.frame.pack()
        self.sport = [("football", 0), ("tennis", 1), ("golf", 2), ("badminton", 3)]
        self.diff = [("easy", 0), ("medium", 1), ("hard", 2)]
        for i, c in self.sport:
            Radiobutton(self.frame, text=i, variable=self.x, value=c, indicatoron=0).pack(anchor="w", fill="both", expand=True)
        for i, c in self.diff:
            Radiobutton(self.frame, text=i, variable=self.y, value=c, indicatoron=0).pack(anchor="w", fill="both", expand=True)
        Button(self.frame, text="Ok", command=self.start).pack(anchor="w", fill="both", expand=True)
    def start(self):
        print("questions: "+self.sport[self.x.get()][0]+", "+"difficulty: "+self.diff[self.y.get()][0])


root = Tk()
App(root)
root.mainloop()

From there you'd need to start your loop and cycle through a selection of questions which would most likely be contained in some form of nested iterable.

You could have something like:

[[(fb question 1, [list of answers]), ...], [(tennis question 1, [list of answers]), ...], ...]
