     Hi there,
     Yes, the first code does a good job by asking them to go higher or lower
     after each guess, in the pop up window.

   My point is that the code you posted can't even run, let alone do a good
   job. The indentation is all messed up and will yield errors.

     The 2nd code works, but only outputs all the higher and lower outputs
     after the 10 guesses.

   How are you running the code?
   Are you using the interactive prompt to type it in? Are you running it in
   an ide like idle?
   If you put it in a file and run it from the OS command line the second
   version should more or less work.

     point, but we just wanted the game to tell the user if he should go
     lower or higher after every guess.
     Does this make sense?

   Yes and your code should do that if you put it in a file. If you try
   typing it at the python prompt you may well get the result you describe.

       The first block of code is full of errors and couldn't work so I have
       no idea what you were really doing!

        The second block should kind of work. From your description I'd guess
       you have an indentation error such that most of the code that should
       be inside the loop is being bypassed. Are you sure the code you sent
       us exactly what you are running?

       My students are creating a guess my number game.

       They are trying to take this type of code (the flow of it), and turn
       it
       into a code using a while loop.
       Here is the first code

       n = int(input('Guess my number: '))if (n <= 172 and n >= 174):
           print('Correct')elif (n >= 174):
           a = int(input('Go Down'))
           if (a >= 174):
               c = int(input('Go Down'))
               if (c >= 174):
                   g = int(input('Last Guess Go Down'))
                   if (g == 173):
                       print('Correct')
               elif (c <= 172):
                   i = int(input('Last Guess Go Up'))
                   if (i == 173):
                       print('Correct')
               else:
                   print('Correct')
           elif (a <= 172):
               e = int(input('Go up'))
               if (e >= 174):
                   f = int(input('Last Guess Go Down'))
                   if (f == 173):
                       print('Correct')
               elif (e <= 172):
                   h = int(input('Last Guess Go Up'))
                   if (h == 173):
                       print('Correct')
               else:
                   print('Correct')
           else:
               print('Correct')elif (n <= 172):
           b = int(input('Go Up'))
           if (b >= 174):
               d = int(input('Go Down'))
               if (d >= 174):
                   j = int(input('Last Guess Go Down'))
                   if (j == 173):
                       print('Correct')
               elif (d <= 172):
                   m = int(input('Last Guess Go Up'))
                   if (m == 173):
                       print('Correct')
               else:
                   print('Correct')
           elif (b <= 172):
               e = int(input('Go Up'))
               if (e >= 174):
                   k = int(input('Last Guess Go Down'))
                   if (k == 173):
                       print('Correct')
               elif (e <= 172):
                   l = int(input('Last Guess Go Up'))
                   if (l == 173):
                       print('Correct')
               else:
                   print('Correct')
           else:
               print('Correct')else:
           print('Correct')

       Here is the code with the while loop
       import random
       n = (random.randint(0,100))
       g = int(input('Guess my number, 0 to 100, you have 10 chances'))
       c = 0
       while (c < 10):
           g = int(input('Guess my number, 0 to 100, you have 10 chances'))
           c = c + 1
           if (g >= n):
               print('Lower!')
           elif (g <= n):
               print('Higher!')
           elif (g == n):
               break
       if (g == n):
           print('You guess my number! It took you ' + str(c) + ' tries!')

       Everyone's code just keeps asking for numbers without giving feedback,
       except for the longer code above.

       Can you help us consolidate the code?  We are using random.randint.

       Thank you!
