"Guessing a randomly selected number" 

Step 3:

These are variables.Variables are used to store value in them, just like how containers work. The ‘=’ refers to the variable storing whatever the programmer stores. The ‘input()’ function refers to the function that is going to ask the user to enter a value, and then store it into a variable. But what we need for the game is for the user to enter only ‘integers’; Not decimals, but only whole numbers.

So that’s why we put the ‘input()’ function inside of the ‘int()’ function so that the game stops functioning and needs to be run again if the user doesn’t put an integer in it.

Lastly, the variables ‘firstnum’ and ‘lastnum’ refer to the range that the game is gonna determine where it’s gonna place a random value for the user to guess.

Step 4:

Here, we write ‘time.sleep(1)’. We extract the ‘sleep()’ function from the ‘time’ module. ‘time.sleep(1)’ means that the game is going to pause for 1 second and then continue working again. This is purely for the effect because it looks kind of cool. The ‘print()’ function is gonna say as an output “Let the games begin!”.

Step 5:

The variable above uses the ‘random’ module in which the variable is extracting a specific function from the module called ‘randint()’. Since the ‘random’ module is an in-built file provided by Python, we extract the ‘randint()’ function in which we put the variables inside it’s parentheses so that the function decides where a random number is going to be within the range.

Step 6:

Here comes the fun part! We make a variable ‘guess’ in which it stores the value that the user provides to guess the random number the computer makes.

Then we make a loop where it uses the command ‘!=’ . This means that if the variable ‘n’(the computer decided number) it doesn’t equal the user’s input; It’s going to follow whatever the programmer has coded as long as the user doesn’t guess the number right.

The while loop is like a box where the if statements go; The first if statement says ‘if the guess is lower than the computer decided number’ then it should say ‘Too Low!’ and ask to try again. The ‘elif’ afterwards stands for ‘else if’ where if the user’s guess is higher than the computer decided number, it should say ‘Too high!’ and ask to try again.

Now if the user correctly guesses the computer decided number, then we have the ‘else’ statement where we put ‘break’ to say to cancel the code and then say that the user has guessed it right.

A thing to notice here is that there should be indents within the code structure as shown above. A way to visualise it is like we have a box where we have to put things in it, that’s what indents are for and they are to tell the computer that those values belong inside the box and not outside of it! So therefore, the contents within the loop should be indented and after the user has guessed it right, the loop ends and then it says ‘You Guessed It Right!!’ to end the game.
