Question

Write a program that has a user guess a secret number between 1 and 10. Store the secret number in a variable called secretNumber and allow the user to continually input numbers until they correctly guess what secretNumber is. Complete the method guessMyNumber that uses a while loop to ask the user for their guess and compares it againist secretNumber. For example, if secretNumber was 6, an example run of the program may look like this:_______.

Answer 1

The student is tasked with creating a number guessing game in Computers and Technology where the user attempts to guess a secret number until the correct number is guessed, using a while loop for the logic.

Step-by-step explanation:

The question requires the creation of a simple number guessing game program, which falls under the subject of Computers and Technology for the High School level. The program should allow a user to guess a secret number between 1 and 10 until they get it right. Here's a basic outline of the program using a while loop:

secretNumber = 6 # this is the secret number
while True:
guess = int(input('Guess my number (between 1 and 10): '))
if guess == secretNumber:
print('Congratulations! You guessed the right number.')
break
else:
print('Try again!')
In this program, secretNumber is set to 6 (as per the example), and the while loop keeps prompting the user to guess until the correct number is entered. Upon the correct guess, a congratulatory message is displayed, and the loop is terminated with a break statement. If the guess is incorrect, the user is prompted to try again.
