Python Random – Number guessing game

In this post we will be creating a number guessing game in python, the script will make use of the the random module for which the ‘randint’ function which will return a random integer within our given range.

The game will have the following logic – We start by generating a random integer. The script will take guesses from the user via input and will check if the input is actually a number. If the input is a number and matches the random integer a success message will appear. Should the input be higher than the random integer a message will appear stating so and vice versa.

The source code for this project can be found below.

from random import randint

Number = randint(1,99)

while True:
    Guess = input("Enter in your Guess: ")
    try:
        Guess = int(Guess)
        if Guess == Number:
            print("Winner - You guessed the right number " + str(Guess)+"\n")
            break
        if Guess < Number:
            print("The number is higher than " + str(Guess)+"\n")
        if Guess > Number:
            print("The number is lower than " + str(Guess) +"\n")
    except ValueError:
        print("Please enter a valid number!!!\n")

An example of a games output can be found below.

Enter in your Guess: 50
The number is higher than 50

Enter in your Guess: 60
The number is higher than 60

Enter in your Guess: 80
The number is lower than 80

Enter in your Guess: 70
The number is lower than 70

Enter in your Guess: 65
The number is higher than 65

Enter in your Guess: 68
The number is higher than 68

Enter in your Guess: 69
Winner - You guessed the right number 69
