Ah, now things make sense! Your subject line is misleading! It's not that
the wikibooks example doesn't work, the example works fine. It's that the
code you added to it doesn't do what you expected. You should have said.
I copied it verbatim from the web
number = 7
guess = -1
count = 0
print(Guess the number!)
while guess != number:
guess = int(input(Is it... ))
count = count + 1
if guess == number:
print(Hooray! You guessed it right!)
elif guess number:
print(It's bigger...)
elif guess number:

I think I know why it isn't working, but I don't know enough yet on
how it should work.
The If statement isn't getting read.
One thing you need to learn about Python... or, for that matter,
pretty much

Why not?
I don't know. What does doesn't work mean?
It didn't do what I expected. (What did you expect? What did it do?)
It printed an error message. (Care to tell it what it was?)
It crashed the computer. (Some more details might help.)

A counter is added to give 3 tries to guess the number.
It is supposed
to
guess at a number (7) with an infinite amount of tries.
This part was added as an exercise.

It is supposed to stop after count gets to 3. It doesn't. It just
keeps looping back and asking for another guess.
You've misread the exercise:

you suggested, it does work now though

actually is...
You are misunderstanding the problem. The problem does NOT say to end
the loop at three tries, just to keep track of the number of tries.
It's not actually
