I am new to programming with Python and have been having non-stop issues with parts of my code being listed as unreachable. Here is my program:
def inputData():
userNumber = int(input("Please enter a number to check if it is divisible by 7 "))
return userNumber
def processData(userNumber):
return True if userNumber % 7 == 0 else False
def outputData(processData):
if True:
print("Your number IS divisible by 7!")
else:
print("Your number is NOT divisible by 7!")
def main():
userNumber = inputData()
isitdivisible = processData(userNumber)
outputanswer = outputData(isitdivisible)
print(main())
When I run it works for numbers that ARE divisible by 7 however when I input a number that gives the true output regardless. Pycharm is highlighting the else: statement as being unreachable.
Any advice on this would be greatly appreciated as I have not been able to get it to work with the use of google at all.
In your outputData
function you aren't checking processData
, instead you have written:
if True:
print("Your number IS divisible by 7!")
In this case, it always prints "Your number IS divisible by 7!". You should have written:
if outputData:
print("Your number IS divisible by 7!")
else:
print("Your number is NOT divisible by 7!")
Your code should work after this, but there are some things I must say. You don't need to print main()
function. You can just call main()
and it must work. Remember, print
is used for showing output. 2nd thing I want to mention is about return True if userNumber % 7 == 0 else False
. userNumber%7 == 0
returns boolean. You can just return it like this:
def processData(userNumber):
return userNumber % 7 == 0
