raw_input passing to fun

[Gary Wessle]

the output of this code below is not what one would expect, it outputs
all kind of numbers and it never stops, I want to ask the user for a
number and then print out the multiplication table up to that number.

thanks

def printMultiples( n, hight):
i = 1
while i <= hight:
print n*i, '\t',
i = i + 1
print
def printMultTable( hight):
i = 1
while i <= hight:
printMultiples( i, i)
i = i + 1

num = raw_input ("produce a multiplication table up to: ")
printMultTable( num)

That's what you want, but not what you did. You asked them for a string.

def printMultiples( n, hight):
i = 1
while i <= hight:
print n*i, '\t',
i = i + 1
print
def printMultTable( hight):
i = 1
while i <= hight:
Temporarily, insert here:
print "types:", type(i), type(hight)
print "values:", i, hight
if i > 100: return
printMultiples( i, i)
i = i + 1

num = raw_input ("produce a multiplication table up to: ")
printMultTable( num)

Try this: printMultTable( int(num))

You may wish to consider changing "hight" to "height" :-)
