Why can't I play my Number game?

here is my code why won't it work:

import random

# generate a random number 1-10
secret_num = random.randint(1, 10)

while True:
    # get a number guess from the player
    guess = int(input("Guess a number between 1 and 10: "))
    #pcompare guess to secret number
    if guess == secret_num:
        print("you got it! My number was {}".format(secret_num))
        break
    else:
        print("Thats not it")
    #print hit/miss

I'd love to help. But I can't read your code. Could you please put it into proper syntax? If you don't know how to take a look at the Markdown Cheatsheet. :)

Thanks! :) What error is Workspaces giving you? Specifically, which line does it say your problem is on?

This program seems to work just fine!

Maybe it's how you are starting it up? What do you do to cause the program to begin running?
