import random
secret_number = random.randint(1, 10)
print(secret_number)
while True:
    guess_number = input("Enter a number between 1 and 10: ")
    if guess_number == secret_number:
        print("You got it! my secret number was {}".format(secret_number))

Even my guess number is equals to my secret number app still runs and it doesn't quit what wrong did I make? I'm running the above code in pycharm.

Looks like guess_number will always be a string and secret_number is an integer - that's why they're never equal. You can convert guess_number to an integer using the int() function.
