I am trying to make a random number guessing game but I cant get the if statement to check if the users input is = to the random number
import random
realNumber = random.randint(1, 50)
print(realNumber)
myNumber = print(input("Guess the number from 1 to 50: "))
if int(myNumber) == realNumber:
print("You win")
else:
print("Nope guess again")
The unintended behavior of your program is due to this line:
myNumber = print(input("Guess the number from 1 to 50: "))
Here, you are trying to assign myNumber to the return value of the print statement (Which is None) and not the value obtained from the input() statement. To fix this, simply remove the print() around the input.
myNumber = input("Guess the number from 1 to 50: ")
Hope this helped!
You don't need the print statement around input.
import random
realNumber = random.randint(1, 50)
print(realNumber)
myNumber = input("Guess the number from 1 to 50: ")
if int(myNumber) == realNumber:
print("You win")
else:
print("Nope guess again")
Note that this code will not work if the user enters something besides an integer, because the int() call will not cast correctly

I wrote this code snippet:
lowestNumber = int(input("\nWhat would you like your lowest number to be?"))
highestNumber = int(input("What would you like your highest number to be?"))
number = random.randint(lowestNumber, highestNumber)
tries = 0
while tries < 10:
guess = int(input(f'\nEnter a number between', lowestNumber))
if guess == number:
print("You guessed correctly! The number was", number)
break
elif guess < number:
print("Too low!")
elif guess > number:
print("Too high!")
tries += 1
SyntaxError: bad input on line 22 in main.py.
Line 22 was guess = int(input(f'\nEnter a number between', lowestNumber)).
I searched it up on google and got nothing, I pasted it into OpenAI's code fixing and it also didn't help.
How can I fix this error?
When you wrote
guess = int(input(f'\nEnter a number between', lowestNumber))
it passed both the string and lowestNumber into the input function. However, you probably wanted to write something like Enter a number between (lowestNumber) and (highestNumber). To do this, you would have to write
guess = int(input(f'\nEnter a number between {lowestNumber} and {highestNumber}. '))
In my example, it passes in one object, the string, which contains lowestNumber and highestNumber in it. In your example, it passes in two objects, the string and lowestNumber.
The formatting you did in the input functions works in print statements, so the print statements are correct, but the input function is not.

I'm trying to create a game of last man standing in python, but when you input a number it outputs the negative version of the correct answer? Also, when i enter anything other than 1, 2, or 3, I get the error: ValueError: could not convert string to float: '(anything other than the numbers)'
any help is appreciated. Thanks!
import random
num = random.randrange(20, 30)
print ("The number is " + str(num) + ", take either one, two or three away from it!")
take = float(input("input either 1, 2 or 3: "))
newnum = take - num
if take == 1:
print(newnum)
elif take == 2:
print(newnum)
elif take == 3:
print(newnum)
else:
print("please enter either 1, 2 or 3!")
You could just use a while loop to make sure the user only inputs 1,2 or 3.
import random
num = random.randrange(20, 30)
print ("The number is " + str(num) + ", take either one, two or three away from it!")
take = None
while take not in {1,2,3}: #{} faster than ()
take = int(input("input either 1, 2 or 3: "))
print("please enter either 1, 2 or 3!")
print(num-take)
Also as the above code shows, you need to use num-take instead of vice-versa.

I'm getting a syntax error on my 2nd while loop. Can't figure out why, any help appreciated :)
#intro
print("Welcome to my prime number detector.")
print("Provide an integer and I will determine if it is prime.")
#again loop
again = "Y"
while again == "Y":
num = (int(input("Enter an integer"))
#check for valid input
while num < 1:
num = (int(input("Enter an integer"))
#test for prime
for d in range(2,num):
if (num % d) == 0:
print(num,"is not prime.")
else:
print(num,"is prime.")
#ask again
again = intput("Do you want to play again? (Y/N)")
You are missing a closing parenthesis ) in the two of your following lines. The correct line of code is
num = (int(input("Enter an integer")))
Also, as sheepez mentioned below, your outer brackets are redundant. You can simply use
num = int(input("Enter an integer"))

I have 2 questions about my code. Why the program doesn't go in the second if statement. How can I end the loop?
from random import *
SecretNumber=randint(1,5)
Guess=int(input("Please enter Guess: "))
NumberofGuesses=1
SecretNumber=0
while Guess != SecretNumber:
NumberofGuesses=NumberofGuesses+1
if Guess>SecretNumber:
print("Please insert a smaller number")
else:
print("Please insert a bigger number")
if Guess==SecretNumber:
print("Number of Guesses: {0}".format(NumberofGuesses))
Your second if is outside the while loop, so it won't get hit until you guesss the secret number. The loop never ends because you never read another guess.
You also have a problem that you are overriding your random secret number with zero.
You need something like:
import random
SecretNumber=random.randint(1,5)
NumberofGuesses=0
while true:
Guess=int(input("Please enter Guess: "))
NumberofGuesses += 1
if Guess == SecretNumber:
break # Got it!
elif Guess>SecretNumber:
print("Please insert a smaller number")
else:
print("Please insert a bigger number")
print("Number of Guesses: {0}".format(NumberofGuesses))
It's because you're setting SecretNumber to 0. Remove it and it should work.

I was wondering how to reset this program, and I need help. I have been looking everywhere for an answer, but I can't find a program that works. Can someone please help me?
print("Answer These MATH Questions")
def program():
math = int(input("What Is 8 x 4: "))
if math == ("32"):
print("You Got The Question Correct")
else:
print("Sorry You Got The Question Wrong Try Again")
program()
return
Use while like example. Don't use int for input - maybe it will not number:
while 1:
math = input("What Is 8 x 4: ")
if not math.isdigit():
print("It's not number")
elif math == "32":
print("You Got The Question Correct")
break
else:
print("Sorry You Got The Question Wrong Try Again")
change if math == ("32"): to if math == 32:
