quizGame

A simple quiz built with Go that is run using the command line.

The goal of the project is to get myself acquainted with Golang.

The task was taken from the Gophercises course by Jon Calhoun

Project Details

A program that reads the result of a test provided using a CSV file (more details below), and then provides the test to the user, tracking how many questions the user answered correctly and incorrectly. Regardless of whether the answer is correct or incorrect, the next question follows immediately after that.

The CSV file by default has the value test1.csv (an example is shown below), but the user has the option to configure the file name using the flag (an example is shown below).

The CSV file will be in the format as shown below, where the first column is a question, and the second column in the same row is the answer to this question.

5+5,10
"what 2+2, sir?",4
5+2,7
1+2,3
8+6,14
3+1,4
1+4,5
5+1,6
2+3,5
3+3,6
2+4,6

At the end of the quiz, the program shows the total number of correct questions and how many questions there were in total. Questions that are answered incorrectly are considered incorrect.

Level 2

A timer has been added to this level. The default time limit is 30 seconds, but it is also possible to configure it using the flag.

The quiz ends as soon as the allotted time expires. That is, the program does not wait for the user to answer one last question.
