Simple question

[Dag Hansteen]

#This is how you can do it:

# Answering 2 for "no" 10 times it will print "I want a cookie"
# and then print "Now the program will restart"
# then restarts.. :)

print "I want a cookie!"

class CookieProgram:
    def __init__(self):
        self.y = 10


    def giveCookieOrNot(self):
        while self.y == 0:
            print "I want a cookie!"
            self.y = 10
            print "Now the program will restart."
            self.giveCookieOrNot()
        print
        print "Give a cookie?"
        print "1   Yes"
        print "2   No"
        print
        gave = input("> ")
        if gave == 1:
            print "Thank you! That is much better."
        else:
            self.y = self.y - 1
            self.giveCookieOrNot()


cookie = CookieProgram()
cookie.giveCookieOrNot()
