I have been having some difficulty modifying this program to where a

within that number he is asked to "Try Again" The original program code
and the code that I modified are given below. Thanks for your help.
Sincerely,
Raj
The Original program code:
# Guess my number
#
# The computer picks a random number between 1 and 100
# The player tries to guess it and the computer lets
# the player know if the guess is too high, too low
# or right on the money
import random
print "\tWelcome to 'Guess My Number'!"
print "\nI'm thinking of a number between 1 and 100."
print "Try to guess it in as few attempts as possible.\n"
# set the initial values
the_number = random.randrange(100)+1
guess = int(raw_input("Take a guess:"))
tries = 1
#guessing loop
while guess != the_number:
if guess > the_number:
print "Lower..."
else:
print "Higher..."
guess = int(raw_input("Take a guess:"))
tries += 1
print "You guessed it! The number was", the_number
print "And it only took you", tries, "tries!\n"
raw_input("\n\nPress the enter key to exit")
Hi Raj,
I am also learning Python and never did any real programming before, I
have been attempting to learn about classes, this is my version,
comments, suggestions always welcome.
