...Here is the pseudocode I have written up:
Once the user has thought of their number, take a guess
While the number has not been guessed correctly
Increase the number of 'tries' by 1
Ask the user if the guess was too high or too low
If the guess was too high
guess lower
If the guess was too low
guess higher
Once the number has been guessed correctly, tell the user the number of tries
it took
Your pseudocode looks fine.
Try writing that as Python.
You'll need to use raw_input() if using python 2 or input() in Python 3
You will want to convert the input to an int()
You will want to use the random module, and probably the randrange
function within it.
You will need variables to store the number of tries and the latest guess,
Try it. If you get stuck show us what you've done, any error messages
and tell us what you don't understand.
