Hello all. I have just completed my very first python program just a
simple number guessing. I would like for someone to try it out if they
could and let me know how I did with it and where I could have
improved apon it. There are t files main.py and defs.py
Thanks

print "\nHave a nice day!\n" #Tell them to have a nice day
sys.exit() #Then exit the entire thing
elif play == '2': #If user picks 2

game() #Then lets call the game function for the user to play
elif play == '': #This is used is the menu leaves the screen so the

choice() #Bring back the menu
else:
print "\nYou need to pick 1, 2 or 3 or hit enter to see

#Let the user know that they can only pick 1, 2, 3 or just hit enter
