[Tutor] Print/Loop Question

[michael scott]

Hi Jeff how are you today?

Well about your question... I copy and pasted your code and it worked fine for 
me. Well except for in the code bit you posted you forgot to give a guess a 
value before it was referred to. So under number = 44 I just wrote guess = 0 and 
it worked fine. 


But perhaps I'm misunderstanding your question, because I did not get any of the 
errors you mentioned.

Here is what I got

jigenbakuda at jigenbakuda-HP-G50-Notebook-PC:~$ python 6.py
Guess a number between 1 - 100: 45
Too high
Guess a number between 1 - 100: 43
Too low
Guess a number between 1 - 100: 44
Just right
jigenbakuda at jigenbakuda-HP-G50-Notebook-PC:~$ 


with this code

number = 44
guess = 0 
while guess != number :
    guess = int(raw_input("Guess a number between 1 - 100: "))
    if guess > number :
        print ("Too high")

    elif guess < number :
        print ("Too low")
    else:
        print ("Just right" )
 
If I'm misunderstanding your problem, I'm sorry.

What is it about you... that intrigues me so?

I'm trying to run the below program and get it to print out feedback as the loop 
goes. However, if you enter a number too high or too low, it skips the print 
statement under the if and elif clauses and asks the user to "Guess a 
number between 1-100" again. Any suggestions on how to get it to print the "too 
high" and "too low" responses?? Once the number is entered correctly it prints 
"Just Right" and exits correctly. 

 
number = 44
 
while guess != number : 
    guess = int(raw_input("Guess a number between 1 - 100: "))
    if guess > number :
        print ("Too high")

    elif guess < number :
        print ("Too low")
    else:
        print ("Just right" )
