Create Quiz Application in python

Create Quiz Application in python

This post features supplementary code associated with a tutorial on my YouTube channel, demonstrating the creation of a quiz application in Python. The program engages users by posing questions and prompting them to select an option. In building the quiz application, we leverage Python data structures like lists and dictionaries to manage variables, employ logical operators, and incorporate conditional statements such as 'if' statements. Additionally, we utilize loops, including 'for' and 'while' loops, for handling choices. If you are new to Python, you can explore the basics through this blog where I cover fundamental concepts of Python programming.
