See now this easily made sense, thank you for explaining each step in your program’s execution in such a calculated concise manner, it actually felt like i was reading from a an actual workflow i had created whereas the rubric my professor provided felt intentionally obfuscated

[@PortfolioCourses]

I'm glad it easily made sense for you, and you're welcome! :-)

[@kyyzh12]

Very understandable tutorial! I actually understood everything you said

[@santhoshsathish5828]

Thank you for this amazing video.. It really helped me out for my board practical’s ❤

[@sairaj2259]

Thanks! it really helped me understand the loops better.

[@PortfolioCourses]

You're welcome, I'm glad to hear it helped you out! :-)

[@hem.lock._]

Thank you so much from this I understood how while loops work I've subbed

[@PortfolioCourses]

You're welcome, I'm glad this video was able to help you understand while loops, and welcome aboard! :-)

[@fryaldraws6294]

Thank you, this was really helpful.
But you forgot to let the user know how much guesses they have guessed...

[@Saudi-Ball]

I want to put pictures in the questions but how??

[@Ice_2192]

I did a little more and added an attempt counter. Every time I took a guess the counter goes up and at the end of the game it says how many tries it took to guess the correct number.

[@Metrojo831]

thanks
i really needed this
so thank you so much

[@PortfolioCourses]

You're very welcome, I'm glad that it was helpful! :-)

[@helenodili2360]

How do you make the program to give the user a limited amount of guesses then prints "Game over" after he reaches the limit

[@Ratamos6]

Idk if you found the answer for this but i did it in that way:
Attempts = 0
While guess != number
Attempts += 1
If (attempts > 10)
print(Game over)
break

[@RICHAPal-qe2ve]

Sorry Sir but I can't understand why it stopped at 75 and told us that you want

[@yivett]

I’ll be trying this out today! I have python downloaded but to do my scripts I use Visual Studio Code because I wasn’t able to get my python working with my own terminal from my MacBook. Would I write the game on Visual and guess it with IDLE or my terminal? Sorry I’m a beginner 😬

[@tASBIDTASEENAHMED]

i love this informative video. pls make more. Thank u love you so much!! This have me new ideas. Please remember my name as i might come to see you soon. ttyl!!! xoxo

[@CoderMala]

Thank you so much

[@LoujinaLoujian]

WHICH SITE DID YOU USE

[@trestonnemisz9866]

What if I told you I put this on my calculator

[@PortfolioCourses]

Haha I would say that's awesome Treston! :-) I would actually like to see that.

[@DeathRebel369]

How would you loop back to the user input prompt if they type in a string instead of an integer?

[@adriellyaraujo2354]

I wanna know this too, have you found the answer already?

[@brightkaponda5110]

int(input) you can use try and catch block to catch the error .

[@kristnajohanna]

Thank you! / Sweden

[@PortfolioCourses]

You're welcome! :-)

[@Darkdragon-dp8ud]

mine says unexpected syntax error for the if guess < number code

[@PortfolioCourses]

The source code for this video is available here, it should work: github.com/portfoliocourses/python-example-code/blob/main/number_guessing_game.py. Maybe the : is missing? Or maybe it's an indentation issue? This video covers indentation in Python: th-cam.com/video/CcgSYrWwSpE/w-d-xo.html

[@yhaiji]

thanks

[@TakundamusiiwaMusiiwa]

You are the best

[@PortfolioCourses]

Thanks! :-)

[@gedeonaziagbe6231]

thank you

[@PortfolioCourses]

You're welcome Gédéon! :-)

[@ARD105]

What does the ! Mean in the while loop, it doesn’t work without it, what does it do???

[@PortfolioCourses]

The ! is part of an operator !=, it means "does not equal". So if the guess "does not equal" the number then the loop will continue because the loop condition will be true. :-)

[@ARD105]

@@PortfolioCourses that makes sense, thank you

[@PortfolioCourses]

You're welcome! :-)

[@beautywow7520]

Hi idk but it isnt printing the guess lower thing at all idk why

[@PortfolioCourses]

I’m not sure why that would happen. The original code for this video is here: github.com/portfoliocourses/python-example-code/blob/main/number_guessing_game.py. Do you still get the error if you try using exactly that code? :-)

[@pepedafrog2277]

make sure the if, elif, and else statements are inside the while loop, by indenting them

[@nikola---123]

Thanks bro

[@trapsama892]

How do you make it so that if the user enters a number outside of the 1-100 range it tells the user to enter a new number?

[@PortfolioCourses]

You could do something like this:
if (guess < 1 or guess > 100):
print("Number must be between 1-100, please guess again")
elif (guess < number):
print("Guess higher!")
elif (guess > number):
print("Guess lower!")
else:
print("You won!")
