I have followed a tutorial to create a guessing game in python 3 and i thought i could make it better so i created a timed intro with error inputs recognition and it all seemed to be going well.
However, when i came time to ensure when a player inputted anything other than a number(IE exception handling) it just fails out.
The game it self functions just not the non integer in the guessgame
I have tried the following with ValueError:
- if, else
- try, except
- if guess == ValueError
All to no avail, anyway, code is below. Any help to solve this would be much appreciated.
import time
def guessgame():
import random # brings in random generator
number = random.randint(1, 20) # assigns random value between 1, 20
numofguesses = 0 # sets number of guesses to 0
print("Hello what is your name?")
name = input()
print("The number i am thinking of is between 1 and 20", name) # user
defined name
for numofguesses in range(6):# if number of guesses left is less that 6
do the following
print("Take a guess")
guess = input() # assign guess variable to user input
guess = int(guess) # ensures guess is an number
if guess < number:
print("Number is too low!")
if guess > number:
print("Number is too high!")
if guess == number:
break
else:
if ValueError:#THIS IS THE JERK THAT DOESNT WORK!!!!
print("Please enter a number")
if guess == number:
numofguesses = str(numofguesses)
print("Well done", name, "You guessed the number in: ", numofguesses)
gameiniate()
if guess != number:
number = str(number)
print(" Wrong! unlucky, the number was: ", number)
def gameiniate():
print("Would you like to play a game? Yes or No")
game = input().lower()
yeschoice = ("yes", "y")
nochoice = ("no", "n")
if game in yeschoice:
guessgame()
elif game in nochoice: # command to exit script if no or n typed
print("thats too bad")
print("type exit to close")
if input() == "exit":
exit()
else:
print("Please respond with Yes or No")
