I want to give the computer 100 tries to guess a random number between 1 and 100 picked by the computer.
For the moment I am always using 37 as the random pick. I want to change the pick to pick=random.randrange(1,100). The program works as expected until the computer gets a correct guess. I don't know what I should be doing to restart the program when pick=guess. It is supposed to let the computer pick a number between 1 and 100 and then let the computer guess the answer. If the computer picks a low number the next guess is supposed to be limited to higher numbers than the guess. If the computer picks a high number, the next guess is supposed to be limited to lower numbers than the first guess. The program fails when guess=pick import random count = 1 #Start the counter at 1 low=1 # the low range of 1 to 10 high=100 #The high range of 1 to 100 pick = 37 # Will change to pick=random.randrange(1,100) guess = 0 #Guess is the computer's guess at pick print ("Time to play a guessing game.") print ("") while count < 100: guess = random.randrange(low,high) print (pick, guess) if guess == pick: print ("correct") #"What I need is something here that says start over" elif guess < pick: low=guess+1 print ("Too low") elif guess > pick: high=guess-1 print ("Too high") count = count +1 (I can see where adding a 25 then 10 increment later would speed up the guessing) -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
