You've bound the name ‘current_guess’ to the user's input, but then do
nothing with it for the rest of the function; it will be discarded
without being used.

Then, you use the parameter ‘guess_number’, create a new integer from
it, and return that integer. I think you've used the wrong name for the
‘int()’ parameter.
