Exercise 4: Health Regen

Your character has taken damage and is regenerating health. Each turn they recover 5 HP, but health can't go above the max HP of 100.

Write a while loop that heals the character until they're at full health, and track how many turns it takes.

Example (starting at 72 HP):

Turn 1: 72 → 77 HP
Turn 2: 77 → 82 HP
Turn 3: 82 → 87 HP
Turn 4: 87 → 92 HP
Turn 5: 92 → 97 HP
Turn 6: 97 → 100 HP
Fully healed in 6 turns!

Notice turn 6: 97 + 5 = 102, but it caps at 100.

Starter Code

health = 72
max_health = 100
regen = 5
turns = 0

while health < ___:
    old_health = health
    health += regen
    # Make sure health doesn't go above max
    if health > max_health:
        health = ___
    turns += 1
    print(f"Turn {turns}: {old_health} → {health} HP")

print(f"Fully healed in {turns} turns!")

Hints

if health > max_health:
    health = max_health
