Others have answered the immediate issue.
But...
def testNumber(self):
guess = int(self.numberEnt.get())
tries = 1
while guess != the_number:
if guess > the_number:
number += "Lower..."
else:
number += "Higher..."
guess = int(self.numberEnt.get())
tries += 1
This is all wrong for a GUI appluication.
You should not use loops in an event handler.
Instead let the event loop in Tkinter do the looping.
You respond to the user clicking the submit button
and evaluate that single value. You then wait for
the next button press to signal that there is a new
value to check.
Any time you see a loop inside a GUI event
handler you should stop and check that it belongs there.
Usually it doesn't!
number += "You guessed it! The number was" + the_number
number += "And it only took you " + tries + " tries!\n"
self.numberTxt.delete(0.0, END)
self.numberTxt.insert(0.0, number)
It may just be mail but this appears to be outside
the method definition and indeed outside the class.
Is that correct? Or just a mail glitch? Since they refer
to self they should be inside a method so I'll assume
its a mail thing.
# main
number = ""
the_number = random.randint(1, 100)
If you are using classes its normal to put most of
the variables inside the classes. There is no reason
for the_number to be a global value, it would be
better as part of the Application.
