Hi Raj,
The only thing I see is that under #guessing Loop you do not have ()
around the code; ie.
while (guess != the_number):
if (guess > the_number):
print "Lower.."

I have been having some difficulty modifying this program to
where a player has limited number of guesses and if he fails
to guess correctly 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 "And it only took you", tries, "tries!\n"

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.

Hi Randy,
Looks like you are top posting, on most mailing lists the mail is read
from top to bottom with the bottom being the most recent. So my attempt
is on the bottom, the last one. Also on this list you will need to send
your reply to reply all or reply list to sent the mail to the list.
