Hello all,
I have been trying to write a program that has the user think of a number
between 1 and 1000, and the computer will guess the number in 10 or less tries.
It isn’t working there. Here is my code.
import sys
high = 1000
low = 0
print "Think of a number between 1 and 1000 but don't tell me!"
def ask(x):
while True:
print "I guess %d" % x
answer = raw_input("Is that right, too high, or too low?: ")
if answer == 'right':
print "Lucky me!"
sys.exit(0)
elif answer == 'too low':
return 1
elif answer == 'too high':
return -1
else:
print "I don't understand"
while True:
guess = (high + low) / 2
ask(guess)
if ask(guess == 1):
guess = (high + guess) / 2
elif ask(guess == -1):
guess = (high - guess) / 2
else:
sys.exit(0)
Can somebody help me please?
