recently I added a print statement to an if statement declaring that if the user entered the correct answer tot the current question displayed print the user's answer if they are correct and print out what the original answer to the question is. In order to do this since I have an array like so:
$questionsAndAnwsers = array(array("question" => " What early cartoon character created by the Disney Studio was Mickey Mouse based off of ?", "answer" => "Oswald the Lucky Rabbit"),
array("question" => "Who invented the first TV ? Please use full name.", "answer" => "Philo Taylor Farnsworth"));
I declared the current answer to equal the current question and answer:
$currentAnswer = $questionsAndAnwsers[$currentQuestion]["answer"];
With this I finally set up the if statement to do the actual checking and this is where I know it doesn't work my setup because it no longer checks the answer correctly and as soon as the second question comes up it is wrong even with the correct answer. Here is my if statement:
if($_POST["guess"] == $currentAnswer){
$currentQuestion++;
$guess = $_POST['guess'];
print ("Your answer: $guess <br>");
print("The answer expected: $currentAnswer<br>");
print("Answer Correct<br>");
print("Next Question Below<br>");
}
else {
$currentQuestion=0;
$guess = $_POST['guess'];
print ("Your answer: $guess <br>");
print("You have failed..<br>");
}
After realizing any question after the first one fails I am thinking that my setup for the current answer is not correct and all it is calling is possibly the first answer in the set which is a huge issue as I need the answer to be changing with each new question. I thought I understood this and it would work but I am either making a simple mistake or I am misunderstanding what I need to do.
Does anyone have any advice how to achieve the current answer equaling each separate answer as the questions change.
