Python code with pigpio doesn't work properly

Question

So, I was wondering if I could light up an led a little bit, so the led wasn't neither off, or completely on.
The only way I found on Google to do that was with pigpio, so I installed the program on my Pi 3 and ran it by using sudo pigpiod, then I decided to write a code to see if it worked, but with no success, here is the code:

import pigpio

pi = pigpio.pi()

try:
    while(True):

        red = raw_input("Red. 1-255.-->")
        redCol = int(red)
        if (redCol >= 1 and  redCol <= 255):
            pi.set_PWM_dutycycle(11,redCol)
        else:
            print("Invalid Value")

        green = raw_input("Green. 1-255.-->")
        greenCol = int(green)
        if (greenCol >= 1 and greenCol <=255):
            pi.set_PWM_dutycycle(13,greenCol)
        else:
            print("Invalid Value")

        blue = raw_input("Blue. 1-255.-->")
        blueCol = int(blue)
        if (blueCol >= 1 and blueCol <= 255):
            pi.set_PWM_dutycycle(15,blueCol)
        else:
            print("Invalid Value")

except KeyboardInterrupt:
        pi.stop()

When I run the code It prompts me to the color 'selection' input, but when I input something the led does nothing.

Answer 1

The code works as expected.

$ python script.py
Red. 1-255.-->40
Green. 1-255.-->80
Blue. 1-255.-->200
Red. 1-255.-->

produces the proper result.

The most likely explanation is you don't have your LEDs connected to (Broadcom) numbered GPIO 11/13/15 or they are incorrectly connected.

Answer 2

The error was that I had set the pins to their corresponding pin number, not pin name, which meant that pin 11 was pin 17, pin 13 was pin 27 and pin 15 was pin 22.
Here is the final code:

import pigpio

pi = pigpio.pi()

#Set pins
RED_PIN = 17
GREEN_PIN = 27
BLUE_PIN = 22

try:
    while(True):

        red = raw_input("Red. 1-255.-->")
        redCol = int(red)
        if (redCol >= 1 and  redCol <= 255):
            pi.set_PWM_dutycycle(RED_PIN,redCol)
        else:
            print("Invalid Value")

        green = raw_input("Green. 1-255.-->")
        greenCol = int(green)
        if (greenCol >= 1 and greenCol <=255):
            pi.set_PWM_dutycycle(GREEN_PIN,greenCol)
        else:
            print("Invalid Value")

        blue = raw_input("Blue. 1-255.-->")
        blueCol = int(blue)
        if (blueCol >= 1 and blueCol <= 255):
            pi.set_PWM_dutycycle(BLUE_PIN,blueCol)
        else:
            print("Invalid Value")

except KeyboardInterrupt:
        pi.set_PWM_dutycycle(RED_PIN,0)
        pi.set_PWM_dutycycle(GREEN_PIN,0)
        pi.set_PWM_dutycycle(BLUE_PIN,0)
        pi.stop()

Hope somebody else finds this helpful.
