I'm writing a program in which I input a number and the computer has
to guess it. Every time I try to run the program it highlights the
'while' at the beginning of my loop and says 'invalid syntax' but I
have no idea why. I'll paste a copy of my program below. Why is there
a syntax error in my while loop?
import random
print("\tCan you beat the machine?\n\n")
a = 0
b = 101
tries = 1
guess = random.randint(a+1, b-1)
number = int(input("Choose a number between 1 and 100 for CPU to guess:")
Missing a ) at the end of the above line.
while guess != number:
if guess < number:
a = guess
else:
b = guess
print(guess)
tries += 1
guess = random.randint(a+1, b-1)
print("Your number is... ", guess, "!!!")
print("And it only took me", tries, "tries. Can you beat me?")
input("\n\nPress enter key to exit.")
