Guessing Game

I’m thinking of a number between 1 and 100…

What is it?

It’s 50! But what if it were more random?

In a file called game.py, implement a program that:

Prompts the user for a level, $n$. If the user does not input a positive integer, the program should prompt again.
Randomly generates an integer between 1 and $n$, inclusive, using the random module.
Prompts the user to guess that integer. If the guess is not a positive integer, the program should prompt the user again.
- If the guess is smaller than that integer, the program should output Too small! and prompt the user again.
- If the guess is larger than that integer, the program should output Too large! and prompt the user again.
- If the guess is the same as that integer, the program should output Just right! and exit.

Hints

Note that the random module comes with quite a few functions, per docs.python.org/3/library/random.html. Of particular interest, perhaps, are the functions specialized for returning integers, such as randint and randrange.

Demo

Before You Begin

Log into cs50.dev, click on your terminal window, and execute cd by itself. You should find that your terminal window’s prompt resembles the below:

Next execute

mkdir game

to make a folder called game in your codespace.

Then execute

cd game

to change directories into that folder. You should now see your terminal prompt as game/ $. You can now execute

code game.py

to make a file called game.py where you’ll write your program.

How to Test

Here’s how to test your code manually:

Run your program with python game.py. Type cat at a prompt that says Level: and press Enter. Your program should reprompt you:
```
Level:
```
Run your program with python game.py. Type -1 at a prompt that says Level: and press Enter. Your program should reprompt you:
```
Level:
```
Run your program with python game.py. Type 10 at a prompt that says Level: and press Enter. Your program should now be ready to accept guesses:
```
Guess:
```
Run your program with python game.py. Type 10 at a prompt that says Level: and press Enter. Then type cat. Your program should reprompt you:
```
Guess:
```
Run your program with python game.py. Type 10 at a prompt that says Level: and press Enter. Then type -1. Your program should reprompt you:
```
Guess:
```
Run your program with python game.py. Type 1 at a prompt that says Level: and press Enter. Then type 1. Your program should output:
```
Just right!
```
There’s only one possible number the answer could be!
Run your program with python game.py. Type 10 at a prompt that says Level: and press Enter. Then type 100. Your program should output:
```
Too large!
```
Looks like you’re guessing outside the range you specified.
Run your program with python game.py. Type 10000 at a prompt that says Level: and press Enter. Then type 1. Your program should output:
```
Too small!
```
Most likely, anyways: you might get lucky and see Just right!. But it would certainly be odd for you to see Just right! every time. And certainly you shouldn’t see Too large!.

You can execute the below to check your code using check50, a program that CS50 will use to test your code when you submit. But be sure to test it yourself as well!

check50 cs50/problems/2022/python/game

Green smilies mean your program has passed a test! Red frownies will indicate your program output something unexpected. Visit the URL that check50 outputs to see the input check50 handed to your program, what output it expected, and what output your program actually gave.

How to Submit

In your terminal, execute the below to submit your work.
