Quiz: Help please?

natclarke

I am designing a baby quiz to determine if the mother to be is having a boy or a girl.
There will be 25 questions (one on each scene).

On each scene there are 2 answers : One for a boy and one for a girl.

How do I create it so that it calculates what the person picks and shows a % of chance of having a boy or a girl on the final scene?

Any assistance would be appreciated.

regards
Natalie

Hi Natalie, basically you need two integer attributes, let's call them BoyScore and GirlScore. Two buttons on each scene, in the Rules each, put:

When touch is pressed
Change Attribute BoyScore to BoyScore +1

---and in the second one

When touch is pressed
Change Attribute GirlScore to GirlScore +1

Make another attribute, text this time, called Gender

At the end of the quiz, in Rules somewhere:

When BoyScore > GirlScore
Change Attribute Gender to Boy
Otherwise
Change Attribute Gender to Girl

----

The above assumes there will be an odd number of questions....

That's roughly it, hope it helps.

Thanks for the support. It works great. How do I create the totals at the end in % for a boy or a girl? There are 25 questions so it can be made into a % I hope!

Greatly Appreciated!

The score for each sex x 4 = the percentage.

What attributes do I need to add and where?

I have done this so far:

Change Attribute BoyScore to BoyScore +1

---and in the second one

When BoyScore > GirlScore
Change Attribute Gender to Boy
Otherwise
Change Attribute Gender to Girl

I have discovered the answer. Thanks to the great people out there who give up their time to assist. I am very grateful.

You keep track of the score with a game attribute such as game.Score (type integer or index). Each time the player answers correctly, do Change Attribute game.Score to game.Score+[button value].

On the final page, add an actor with a DisplayText behavior, click on the expression editor (the 'e' button) and type this: floor(game.Score/game.PossiblePoints*100).

You can substitute an actual number for game.PossiblePoints if you prefer. Floor rounds the number down, while Ceil rounds it up. You can also concatenate a percent symbol by typing the formula above and adding .."%" after it (include those two periods).

. . . Or you could just type: game.score*4

I have added tables to my project with the following columns:

question, Answer A and Answer B and an integer column called Solution (Either a 1 for a girl and 2 for a boy in the column)

On the scenes I have two possible the questions and answers submitted. ie.

The ring moves:

side to side (It is a boy)
in circles (It is a girl)

Next to each answer there is a white baby footprint to press. I would like to link it to my table rather than manually going in change the image to a blue or pink footprint if the answer is related to either a boy or girl.

How would I go about doing that? I have been searching on tutorials for 5 hours!

Thanks
Natalie

Hey that earlier quote about %s looks familiar...

One way to change the image is to have two images in your library called 1.png and 2.png. Then, do Change/Constrain Attribute self.image to tableCellValue(TableName,Row,"Solution"). If the value in the "Solution" column is 1, it will show 1.png, if 2 it will show 2.png.

Yeah, it's the quote you copied when you posted in that other thread.
