elif yes_no_two.lower()=='y':
print('YAYYYY')
game()
else:
print('i dont understand')
break
game()
my game isnt functioning like i want to, it doesnt keep the same answer i've provided instead does the
the_answer=int(input('what shall the number be?: '))
low= int(input('what is the minimum?: '))
high= int(input('what is the maximum?: '))
guess= computer_guess(low,high)
again until the amount of tries is up
[MOD: added ```python for matting -cf]

Treehouse Moderator 68,441 PointsIf you wish the the_answer
, low
, and high
to remain unchanged during the guessing loop, then those statements need to be move outside of the while
loop so they are only asked at the beginning of the game.
Post back if you need more help. Good luck!
