Speech Recognition

[Ash23733]

I'm using speech recognition to detect certain words. at the moment im just testing but I keep running into an error. I'll insert my code as well as the error I get any help I get is greatly appreciated

import speech_recognition as sr
from gtts import gTTS
import os
import pyaudio
def talkToMe(audio):
    print(audio)
    tts=gTTS(text=audio, lang= 'en')
    tts.save('audio.mp3')
    os.system(r'start C:\Users\steph\Desktop\audio.mp3')
def myCommand():
    r = sr.Recognizer()
    with sr.Microphone() as source:
        print(' I am ready for your next command')
        r.pause_threshold = 1
        r.adjust_for_ambient_noise(source, duration = 1)
        audio = r.listen(source)
    try:
        command = r.recognize_google(audio)
        print('You said: ' + command + '/n')

    except sr.UnknownValueError:
            assistant(myCommand())
    return command
def assistant(a):
    if 'time' in a:
        talkToMe("lol")
talkToMe('I am ready for your command')
while True:
    assistant(myCommand())

I feel that's pretty clear. You're using a variable (or at least referring to it) before you ever set it's value.

def myCommand():
    r = sr.Recognizer()
    with sr.Microphone() as source:
        print(' I am ready for your next command')
        r.pause_threshold = 1
        r.adjust_for_ambient_noise(source, duration = 1)
        audio = r.listen(source)
    try:
        command = r.recognize_google(audio)
        print('You said: ' + command + '/n')
 
    except sr.UnknownValueError:
            assistant(myCommand())
    return command

You only set it inside a try/except block, so if there's an error in r.recognize_google(), it never has a value. Give it a default value so that doesn't happen.
