hi,
Here you have the Answer. Plz go through it....
1. # This is a guess the number game.
2. import random
3.
4. guessesTaken = 0
5.
6. print('Hello! What is your name?')
7. myName = input()
8.
9. number = random.randint(1, 20)
10. print('Well, ' + myName + ', I am thinking of a number between 1 and
20.')
11.
12. while guessesTaken < 6:
13. print('Take a guess.') # There are four spaces in front of print.
14. guess = input()
15. guess = int(guess)
16.
17. guessesTaken = guessesTaken + 1
18.
19. if guess < number:
20. print('Your guess is too low.') # There are eight spaces in
front of print.
21.
22. if guess > number:
23. print('Your guess is too high.')
24.
25. if guess == number:
26. break
27.
28. if guess == number:
29. guessesTaken = str(guessesTaken)
30. print('Good job, ' + myName + '! You guessed my number in ' +
guessesTaken + ' guesses!')
31.
32. if guess != number:
33. number = str(number)
34. print('Nope. The number I was thinking of was ' + number)
