Python: How to end game if number_of_guesses is 0?

manpreet Best Answer 2 years ago

I've got a small little project for a coursera course and we have to design a "Guess The Number Game". We've also been instructed to give 7 guesses if the number is 1-100 and 10 guesses if it is 1-1000. My code is below. I'm having some issues with my if statements. When guesses == 0, it still makes the user enter another input before telling him the game is over and starting a new game. I need it to say game over and reset when guesses == 0, without making the user guess again. Where am I going wrong here? I've tried setting elif number_of_guesses == 0 as well, with the same issue. Thanks in advance!

# template for "Guess the number" mini-project
# input will come from buttons and an input field
# all output for the game will be printed in the console

import simplegui
import random

# helper function to start and restart the game
def new_game():
    # initialize global variables used in your code here
    global secret_number
    global number_of_guesses
    secret_number = random.randrange(0, 101)
    print secret_number
    number_of_guesses = 7
    print ""
    print "New Game! Current range is set to 0 - 100!"

# define event handlers for control panel
def range100():
    # button that changes the range to [0,100) and starts a new game 
    global secret_number
    global number_of_guesses
    secret_number = random.randrange(0, 101)
    number_of_guesses = 7
    print secret_number
    print "New Game! Current range is set to 0 - 1000!"

def range1000():
    # button that changes the range to [0,1000) and starts a new game     
    global secret_number
    global number_of_guesses
    secret_number = random.randrange(0, 1001)
    number_of_guesses = 10
    print secret_number
    print "New Game! Current range is set to 0 - 1000!"

def input_guess(guess):
    # main game logic goes here
    global number_of_guesses
    guess = int(guess)
    print ""
    print "Guess was: ", guess
    print ""

    if guess > secret_number and number_of_guesses > 0:
        print "Lower!"
        print ""
        number_of_guesses -= 1
        print "Guesses Remaining: ", number_of_guesses
        print ""

    elif guess < secret_number and number_of_guesses > 0:
        print "Higher!"
        print ""
        number_of_guesses -= 1
        print "Guesses Remaining: ", number_of_guesses
        print ""

    elif number_of_guesses > 0 and guess == secret_number:
        print "Correct!"
        new_game()

    elif number_of_guesses <= 1:
        print "Game Over! Out Of Guesses!"
        new_game

    else:
        print "S**t, something went wrong here."
