What is a Magic 8-Ball?

Define a function called that takes in the question from the user and error checks the question. This function should only return the question to main if the user typed in a valid question.

You will need to start by using raw_input to receive the question from the user. Then, your program will need a branch that will check if the question has a '?' or if its an empty string. You can add additional checks if you'd like before returning the question to main.

Generalize the function so that it will error check for both the question and whether or not the user would like to run the program again.

You will need to define with a parameter that will be used in a branch. The first branch will check if the question is valid, while the second branch will check if the user entered yes or no.

Cause to repeatedly take in input from the user if what they entered doesn't pass the error checking algorithm.

To add this functionality, you will need to have an infinite while loop with the call to raw_input in the body. Your algorithm should only return a value if the input has passed all the checks. If not, the while loop should continue iterating.

Add a function called and set the return value of check_input as its argument.

.

Define a function such that it contains a branch looking for keywords that will anticipate the user’s question and runs rand_grade.

Define such that it takes in a parameter specifying which type of question and prints out an intelligent response.

The red button at the top of the screen can be fixed by adding the following code you your while loop.
You also need to add at the top of your program.

Spell check the input using the Enchant module.

You will need to import the Enchant module at the top of your program. Then, you will need to run a function on the user’s question. This function will check each word’s spelling using the set_text method.

Use an array that will keep track of how many times each question was asked.

You will need to define an array that has as many elements as questions you are checking for. Define the array in the main function and initialize the array elements to zero. You will then need to pass the array to the function calls so that it can later be correctly incremented.

Define a boolean function called check_repeat that will take in the array and question index as arguments and increment the array at the provided index.

You will need to define the function check_repeat so that it checks if the array element at the index is greater than 0, which means the first type of question was asked previously. If this is true, the function should return True, otherwise return False.

The key to this task is to think of the screen like a painting. If you add paint, then there is just more paint on the painting, the old paint doesn’t go away. You have to paint over something you don’t want anymore to get rid of it.
