Resolved: can anyone help me with this

Hey Amazigh,

Thank you for reaching out!

Let me address the conditions following the while-statement, namely:

(num1 or num2 > 100) or (num1 or num2 < 0) or num1 == num2

The way you've written the code, you have the following conditions:

- num1

- num2 > 100

- num1

- num2 < 0

- num1 == num2

Each of these conditions can be either True or False. Note that num1 (and num2) can also be considered conditions and will be evaluated as True for every integer that you enter. You can convince yourself of that by executing, for example, the following line of code:

bool(2)

which will return True.

That being said, consider we enter the following numbers:

- num1 = 71

- num2 = 72

The conditions will be evaluated as follows:

- num1 -> True

- num2 > 100 -> False

- num1 -> True

- num2 < 0 -> False

- num1 == num2 -> False

You therefore have at least one condition evaluated as True. And since you are using the OR logical operator, you will always obtain True regardless of the outcome of the remaining conditions (remember that

- TRUE OR FALSE = TRUE

- TRUE OR TRUE = TRUE).

You will thus never reach the if-statement.

The way you'd instead want your conditions to be is the following:

- num1 > 100 

- num2 > 100

- num1 < 0

- num2 < 0

- num1 == num2

In this way, you check whether both num1 or num2 are larger than 100 or smaller than 0.

Hope this helps.

Kind regards,

num1 = int(input('enter a number'))
num2 = int(input('enter a number'))
while (num1 or num2) > 100 or (num1 or num2) < 0 or num1 == num2:
    print(' must be diff num between 1-100, try again')
    num1 = int(input('enter a number'))
    num2 = int(input('enter a number'))
if num1 > num2:
    for i in range(num2,num1+1):
        print(i,end=' ')
else:
    for i in range(num1,num2+1):

        print(i,end=' ')

i changed the brackets to this :

while (num1 or num2) > 100 or (num1 or num2) < 0 or num1 == num2:                                                         and now it works.
