Python

number_game.py

import random

generate a random number between 1 and 10)

secret_num = random.randint(1, 10)

while True: # get a number guess from the player geuss = int(input("Guess a number between 1 and 10: "))

# compare guess to secret number
if guess == secret_num:
    print("You got it! My number was {}".format(secret_num))
    break
else:
    print("That's not it!")
# print hit/miss

The follow code prints an NameError at line 11 saying guess is not defined. I don't understand how it could not be defined.

geuss = int(input("Guess a number between 1 and 10: ")) # here you call the variable "geuss"

if guess == secret_num: # here you call the variable "guess"

Wow, this was hard for me to see. Thanks!

You have a typo here:

# I think you mean guess = int(input("Guess a number between 1 and 10: "))
geuss = int(input("Guess a number between 1 and 10: "))

I don't see my typo?

import random

generate a random number between 1 and 10)

secret_num = random.randint(1, 10)

while True: # get a number guess from the player geuss = int(input("Guess a number between 1 and 10: "))

# compare guess to secret number
if guess == secret_num:
    print("You got it! My number was {}".format(secret_num))
    break
else:
    print("That's not it!")
# print hit/miss
