sorry here is the code

from random import *

MAX_GOES = 15
LOWER_EASY = 0
UPPER_EASY = 100
FIRST = True
OTHER = False

def main():
numGoes = 0 #number of times the game is played
totalGoes = 0 # total number of guesses made
start = True
numCorrect = 0

while numGoes < MAX_GOES and start:
num = randint(LOWER_EASY, UPPER_EASY)
# print "For testing purposes the num generated is:",num
guess = getGuess(FIRST)
numGuesses = 1 # number of guesses made in this game
numGoes += 1
carryOn = True

while guess != num and carryOn:
carryOn = tryAgain(guess, num)
if carryOn:
guess = getGuess(OTHER)
numGuesses += 1

if guess == num:
print "Great! You got it right in " + str(numGuesses) + " goes!"
numCorrect += 1

totalGoes += numGuesses

start = checkAgain()

outputResults(numCorrect, numGoes, totalGoes)


def getGuess(begin):
guess = 0 # why do I need to do this?
message = ""

message = "I've picked a number between " + str(LOWER_EASY) + " and " + str(UPPER_EASY) + "! What do you think it is? >>> "
else:
message = "What's your next guess? >>> "
guess = input(message)
return guess


def tryAgain(gen, user):
retValue = True

if gen > user:

ret = raw_input("Your guess is too " + compare +". Do you want to guess again (y/n)? >>> ")
while not validResponse(ret):
ret = raw_input("Sorry I don't recognise your input.\nDo you want to guess again (y/n)? >>> ")
if ret == "N" or ret == "n":
print "Quitter!!!"
retValue = False
return retValue


def checkAgain():
retValue = True
ret = raw_input("That Game's over.... Do you want to play again (y/n)? >>> ")
while not validResponse(ret):

return retValue


def outputResults( correct, timesPlayed, totalAttempts):

return ok


main()

and how about the Java code you've tried?

Berto

well all definitions can be turned into functions start from there...
