;Here's a much more complicated challenge but a fun one that you know enough to solve: Check out the game [http://kevan.org/catfishing.php Catfishing] which shows you categories and has you guess an article. Write a version that uses the Wikipedia API. For example, pick 5 articles and write a program that will randomly show the categories for one of those articles and to ask you to guess the article. Read the guess with <code>input()</code> and let the user know if they go it right or wrong! | ;Here's a much more complicated challenge but a fun one that you know enough to solve: Check out the game [http://kevan.org/catfishing.php Catfishing] which shows you categories and has you guess an article.
