[Tutor] High Low Game

[Raquel]

Hi,

I am new to Python, and have hit a WALL.  Any help is appreciated!   Below
is what I have so far, for the "High Low Game"...when I try to run it,
nothing happens, so I have been unable to finish it.  I am sure it is
something simple...

#assignment 2 part 1 high low

def main():
     print " Pick a number between 1 and 1000 and I will try to guess it"
     print "in no more than 10 tries. After each guess, enter 0 if I"
     print "got it right, -1 if I need to guess lower, and 1 if I need to"
     print "guess higher."

high=1000
low=1
tries=1

while high > low:
     ave=(high+low)/2
     print "My guess is", ave,
     guess=int(raw_input("Please enter '-1','0',or '1'):"))
     print guess
     if guess == 0:
          print "That took 1", tries, "guesses."

     elif guess == -1:
          print "I will guess lower."
     elif guess == 1:
          print "I will guess higher."
     else:
          print "Pick a number between 1 and 1000 and I will try to guess
it"
          print "in no more than 10 tries.  After each guess, enter 0 if I"
          print "got it right, -1 if I need to guess lower, and 1 if I need
to"
          print "guess higher."

     main()
