I was looking at the example code below. I am using python 2.7.
I am wondering why when I substitute the while n! = "guess" to while n!= guess
(<-- no quotes) I get a problem?
The Type string is used for the first conditional comparison in the outer While
loop, but afterwards the Type is an int.
I would have expected the guess variable to be used as Type int as it seems to
be cast in the raw_input statement and would be comparable to another int
that's stored in variable n. Thanks
import random
n = random.randint(1, 99)
guess = int(raw_input("Enter an integer from 1 to 99: "))
while n != "guess":
print
if guess < n:
print "guess is low"
guess = int(raw_input("Enter an integer from 1 to 99: "))
elif guess> n:
print "guess is high"
guess = int(raw_input("Enter an integer from 1 to 99: "))
else:
print "you guessed it!"
break
print
