Hello All,
I am working on the guessing game. In my code, if I choose to put in a noninteger number instead of a string, I want the exception I allow for to show. It does, but the last part of my conditional statements is also showing too. I know it has to be a simple fix can anyone help?
My code is linked: https://w.trhou.se/vd12wacxjm

except ValueError:
print("That is not a number. Please try again")
continue # start loop over without reporting on the number
