var correctGuess = false;
var randomNumber = Math.floor(Math.random() * 6 ) + 1;
var guess = prompt('I am thinking of a number between 1 and 6. What is it?');
if (parseInt(guess) === randomNumber ) {
correctGuess = true;
}
else if ( parseInt(guess) < randomNumber ) {
var guessMore = prompt('Try again. The number I am thinking of is more than ' + guess);
if (parseInt(guessMore) === randomNumber) {
correctGuess = true;
}
}
else if ( parseInt(guess) > randomNumber ) {
var guessLess = prompt('Try again. The number I am thinking of is less than ' + guess);
if (parseInt(guessLess) === randomNumber) {
correctGuess = true;
}
}
if ( correctGuess ) {
document.write('<p>You guessed the number!</p>');
} else {
document.write('<p>Sorry. The number was ' + randomNumber + '.</p>');
}
Well Its so funny before I was able to write a loop, and now it doesn't even work.
