I've figured out that out but I have a new issue. I like what you are doing
making me figure this out as it helps me remember. I'll post the new code and
the issue. If you could give me a hint that would be great.
------------------------------------------
Issue
------------------------------------------
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "D:/Python/random.py", line 6, in <module>
computer_number = number.randint(1, 100)
NameError: name 'number' is not defined
-----------------------------------------
Here is the most recent code
-----------------------------------------
# mynumber.py
# this game uses a home made function
import random
#think of a number
computer_number = number.randint(1, 100)
#create the function is_same()
def is_same(target, number):
if target == number:
result="Win"
elif target > number:
result="Low"
else:
result="High"
return result
# start the game
print("hello. \nI have thought of a number between 1 and 100.")
#collect the user's guess as an interger
guess = int(input("Can you guess it? "))
#Use our function
higher_or_lower = is_same(computer_number, guess)
#run the game untill the user is correct
while higher_or_lower != "win":
if higher_or_lower == "low":
guess = int(input("Sorry, you are too low. Try again."))
else:
guess = int(input("Sorry your are too high. Try again."))
higher_or_lower = is_same(computer_number, guess)
#end of game
input("Correct!\nWell Done\n\n\nPress RETURN to exit.")
