Hello all,

I^am also traing Python. Veeery newbie in Python.
Here is a variant of your guessing game.


# Do not forget those TABS or SPACES !
# Thee seems to be important.

# --- Beg -----------------------------
#!/usr/bin/python
# Name guess1.py

maxnum = 100
minnum = 1

number = 0
while number > maxnum+1 or number < minnum:
     number = input("Pick a number between 1 and 100 for the computer to 
guess:")

# guess = int(raw_input('Enter an integer : '))

done = False
guess = tries = 0
guess = (maxnum - minnum + 1) / 2

while not done:
      print "My guess is ", guess

      if guess > number:
          print "It`s less than ", guess
          maxnum = guess
          guess = maxnum - (maxnum - minnum + 1) / 2
      elif guess < number:
          print "It`s more than ", guess
          minnum = guess
          guess = minnum + (maxnum - minnum + 1) / 2
      else:
          print "Knowing you knowing me, I guessed right !"
          done = True

      tries = tries + 1

print "The computer guessed your number after", tries, "tries."

raw_input("Press enter to exit.")

# --- End -----------------------------
