I'm trying to create a script or app for creating multiple choice quizzes. It would allow the user to enter a question, then give a true answer and a number of answers to choose from. The user could repeat that process as many times as he wishes. Then the user would need to enter the number of questions that the created quiz would have. In the end the quiz would be saved as a pdf or word document. All of this would nee a gui made in Qt. So far I have made most of the quiz script and it is working properly. (still need to figure out how to add a,b,c... in front of answers and save to pdf but that shoudn't be a problem). The gui is also done and I think it should work properly.
The problem is I don't know how to connect the quiz script with the gui. I tried many things and none of them work.

When done entering questions type \'stop\': ') if question_text.lower() == 'stop': return None true = input('Enter the correct answer: ') answer_dict = [] while True: answer = input('Enter an answer. When done entering questions type \'stop\': ') if answer.lower() == 'stop': break answer_dict.append(answer) qapair = (question_text, true, answer_dict) return qapair def question_list_builder(): questions = [] while True: qg_method = question_generator() if qg_method is None: break q = (qg_method[0], qg_method[1],qg_method[2]) questions.append(q) return questions #lista_pitanja = question_list_builder() #for lp in lista_pitanja: # pitanje=lista_pitanja # broj =0 # while broj <len(lista_pitanja[2]): # print(broj+1,+': '+) # broj+=1 class ObjectEncoder(json.JSONEncoder): def default(self, obj): return obj.__dict__ if __name__ == '__main__': quest = question_list_builder() name = quiz_name() def JSONWrite(quiz, filepath): with open(f'{filepath}.json', 'w') as fp: fp.write(quiz) print(json.dumps(quest, cls=ObjectEncoder)) # random.sample(pitanja,4) JSONWrite(json.dumps(random.sample(quest,3), cls=ObjectEncoder, indent=4),name)Gui code:

First I made the quiz code and the
__main__was supposed to be only for that code. GUI code is really the main code. I'm using the quiz code just as a reference or help of some sort. And it is easier to see what works and what not :)
Quiz code__main__was just copied from another code from github to create the output file containing the desired Q&A, but it is not necessary to save the output file as a .json file, .txt will do just fine. GUI code main was automatically created while converting GUI.ui file to GUI.py file.
