Unexpected EOF error in python adventure game

Question

I am working on a Counter Strike: Global Offensive text based adventure for my final project in my high school computer science course.

I have tried everything asked many of my peers and ran through the python visualizer at least 10 times and I just can't seem to find the cause of my issue.

Please help me find the cause of this EOF error.

Answer 1

You're enclosing your game logic in a try statement, like so

while True:
    try:
        ...

This is problematic, because just a try doesn't really make sense - what happens if it fails? We use try statements when we want to handle exceptional circumstances - for example

try:
    function_that_can_raise_ValueError()
except ValueError as e:
    handle_that_ValueError(e)
else:
    behave_normally()
finally:
    clean_up_something()

You can have as many except blocks for your code as you would like, for as many Exception types as you would like. These should describe what should happen in the event of such an exception. You can also have a single, optional, else block that indicates what should happen if no Exception occurs. Lastly, there is the finally block which occurs after all the other code has run, regardless of whether or not an Exception (caught or otherwise) is raised.

It is required to have at least one except or finally block after your try block - otherwise that is syntactically invalid. Because you only have the try block, it reaches the end of file (EOF) searching for an except or finally, which is why you get that error.

From a cursory glance at your code it is unclear why you need the try - unless you have a specific reason for having it, I'd recommend getting rid of it altogether. If you do have a reason for having it, then you need an except or finally.
