This block of code appears to be applied for every iteration through
your loop. Is that your intention?

Hi Danny
Thanks for your response,
I think it is part of the problem, but my intention was to end the
first loop only after 5 tries.
I don't understand why the code go to the print section after only two
gusses and not five. and it also reveal the_number before the game
end.
Again thank for your help.

so far so good....
almost...

This is still inside the loop. You want to remove the
indentation so this only happens after you exit the loop.
Otherwise you tell the user the answer before they guess
it (or have 5 goes) and it doesn't work right if the
first guess is correct...
> input("nnPress the enter key to exit.")
You need the if/else to look like this.
