'Counting and Error Handling Block Guessing Game
Could you, please, help me to understand how should I use try/except block and count tries at the same time. Here is the code without try/except block (it seems it's working fine):
import random
number = random.randint(1, 10)
tries = 3
name = input('Hi! What is your name?\n')
answer = input(f'{name}, let\'s play a game! Yes or No?\n')
if answer == 'Yes':
print(f'But be aware: you have only {tries} tries!\nReady?')
chat = input('')
print('Ok, guess a number from 1 to 10!')
while tries != 0:
choice = int(input('Your choice: '))
tries -= 1
if choice > number:
print('My number is less!')
elif choice < number:
print('My number is higher!')
else:
print('Wow! You won!')
break
print(f'You have {tries} tries left.')
if tries == 0 and choice != number:
print(f'Sorry, {name}, you lost... It was {number}. Try next time. Good luck!')
else:
print('No problem! Let\'s make it another time...')
This one is with try/except block.. Not sure where should I place 'choice' variable and where count 'tries', it keeps looping and looping:
import random
number = random.randint(1, 10)
tries = 3
name = input('Hi! What is your name?\n')
answer = input(f'{name}, let\'s play a game! Yes or No?\n')
if answer == 'Yes':
print(f'But be aware: you have only {tries} tries!\nReady?')
chat = input('')
print('Ok, guess a number from 1 to 10!')
while True:
try:
choice = int(input('Your choice: '))
if 0 < choice < 11:
while tries != 0:
tries -= 1
if choice > number:
print(f'My number is less!')
elif choice < number:
print(f'My number is higher!')
else:
print('Wow! You won!')
break
print(f'You have {tries} tries left.')
if tries == 0 and choice != number:
print(f'Sorry, {name}, you lost... It was {number}. Try next time. Good luck!')
else:
print(f'Hey {name}, I said, print a number from 1 to 10!')
except ValueError:
print('Please, enter a number!')
else:
print('No problem! Let\'s make it another time...')
Thanks!
