First off i am very new to coding and python. I am trying to call a global string inside of a function. Then I want to change it into an integer. Next, I want to apply some Math to the integer. Finally I want to convert that integer back to a string and send it back to the global to use in other functions.
I have accomplished most of what I needed to do, but I am having trouble sending the string back to the global. I have tried using return() but it just quits the program. Instead I want it to go to another function, while retaining the new value
Relevant code
current_gold = '10'
def town():
global current_gold
print(current_gold)
def pockets():
global current_gold
new_gold = int(current_gold) + 5
new_gold = str(new_gold)
print(new_gold.zfill(3))
input("\tPress Enter to return to town")
town()
This is not the full code. I maybe doing stuff drastically wrong though.
current_gold = '10'
def changeToInt():
global current_gold
current_gold = int(current_gold)
print(type(current_gold)) # It's a string right now
changeToInt() # Call our function
print(type(current_gold)) # It's an integer now
Or you could do it by passing a parameter to your function like so:
current_gold = '10'
def changeToInt2(aVariable):
return int(aVariable)
print(type(current_gold)) # It's a string right now
current_gold = changeToInt2(current_gold) # make current_gold the output of our function when called with current_gold as aVariable
print(type(current_gold)) # It's an int now
