I am trying to code something that when given an input (for pars), will tell you if it is a bogey, par, birdie, or eagle. However, it just outputs par due to the par == par code. If this is removed it just says "Error". Any idea where my code is messed up?. Thanks in advance.

 

par = int(input())

if par == (par - 2):
    print('Eagle')

elif par == (par - 1):
    print('Birdie')

elif par == par:
    print('Par')

elif par == (par + 1):
    print('Bogie')

else:
    print('Error')

Expert Solution
Step 1: Introduction

When writing code, it is important to think through the logic involved and ensure that the code is executing the intended operations. An error may occur if certain variables are being compared with themselves, as this comparison will always result in the same output.
