I need help quick

[austin]

hi I need help im writing a program in turing with these requirements:
Nested If Statements


Create a program that will ask the user which of the following sports is their favorite: soccer, basketball, or curling. Your program will then ask a different set of tasks depending on the sport they chose. The list of tasks are listed below.



Soccer ? ??? Do you play soccer?
(if the answer yes, then ask the next question, if not, skip the question.)
What position do you play?
Who do you cheer for in the world cup?
if they answer Brazil output...they are nothing but cry baby actors
if they answer Canada output...Very patriotic of you
if they answer anything else, put, you must have made a mistake, you ??? ??? ??? didn?t you mean to say Canada


Basketball ???? output: A fair sport, but it is no soccer.
Do you play basketball?
if they answer yes, output: If think you need to grow a little bit.
if they answer no, output: I didn?t think so!
Who is your favorite team in the NBA?
if they answer Toronto, output T dot, all the way this year!!
otherwise output: _________will never make it past Toronto


Curling ???? output Hurry!! Hurry Hard!!!
output Canada is still dominant at curling atleast.
output Do you watch the Scott?s tournament of Hearts?
if they answer yes, ask, who sponsors that tournament?
if they answer Scott?s output: very clever
otherwise output: it wasn?t that hard of a question. Scott?s ??? ??? ??? ??? sponsors the tournament.
output Thanks for using my program skip.



For a bonus, ask the user if they want to run your program first. If they say yes, run the program, if they say no, output: thanks anyway, have a good day!






And this is what I quickley threw together I just need help with debugging a little documentation and some organization copy and paste it in turing so it looks nicer

setscreen ("graphics:max;max") % to do full screen
var sport : string
var playAgain : string
var gettour : string
var sponser : string
var ans : string
var NBA : string
var dPlay : string
var exit1 : string

const FONT4 : int := Font.New ("fbi:20")
const FONT5 : int := Font.New ("vivaldi:25")
const FONT6 : int := Font.New ("fbi:25")
const FONT7 : int := Font.New ("vivaldi:30")
const FONT8 : int := Font.New ("fbi:30")
const FONT9 : int := Font.New ("vivaldi:35")
const FONT10 : int := Font.New ("fbi:35")

var pic : int := Pic.FileNew ("soccer.jpg") %loads into turing cache
pic := Pic.Scale (pic, 1400, 860) %changes pic to 10x 30
Pic.Draw (pic, 0, 0, picCopy) %draws pics

[Tony]

what do you need help with?

[austin]

I need help to make the program run properl for example whenb I type curling or soccer it goes straight to basketball

[Tony]

Ok, that's a bit more descriptive.

If your if statements are not doing what you think they should be doing, a good idea is to print out the values involved right before the evaluation. Perhaps you are making a wrong assumption.

[austin]

in a minute i will be finished uploading the you tube link of my program

[Tony]

I'd prefer specific technical questions.

[austin]

okay My program basically has way to many logic errors my curling option when you type it in it goes to the basketball if statement do you think it would help to move or add more end ifs at the basketball area?

[Tony]

do you think it would help? In what way?

[austin]

As you can see I have the get sport curling basketball or soccer right I didnt make my soccer but I figure If I just change my second if statement for basketball to elsif then have the last one else remove my end ifs and put one one the end that that might help but i dont have much luck with elsifs

[austin]

I tried it but I get tons of errors

Sounds like you are just guessing. Probability of random code working is not in your favour.

[austin]

yes but does programming always work on the first go? A lot is guessing checking and looking back on my knowledge since programming is not my strong suit I thought I might ask a programmer not a philoshper!

Yes.

How many passenger airplanes do you suppose were guess-and-checked before they stopped crashing and falling out of the sky?

[austin]

tons is that not how they figured it out?

[Llathe]

sorry for barging in.
In the case of the airplanes, they started small. Once they perfected that they moved onto larger airplanes.
