Answer:
import random
import math
smaller = int(input("Enter the smaller number: "))
larger = int(input("Enter the larger number: "))
count = 0
print()
while True:
count += 1
myNumber = (smaller + larger) // 2
print('%d %d' % (smaller, larger))
print('Your number is %d' % myNumber)
choice = input('Enter =, <, or >: ')
if choice == '=':
print("Hooray, I've got it in %d tries" % count)
break
elif smaller == larger:
print("I'm out of guesses, and you cheated")
break
elif choice == '<':
larger = myNumber - 1
else:
smaller = myNumber + 1
Explanation:
The code to be Modified is as indicated below:
# Modify the code below:
import random
smaller = int(input("Enter the smaller number: "))
larger = int(input("Enter the larger number: "))
myNumber = random.randint(smaller, larger)
count = 0
while True:
count += 1
userNumber = int(input("Enter your guess: "))
if userNumber < myNumber:
print("Too small")
elif userNumber > myNumber:
print("Too large")
else:
print("You've got it in", count, "tries!")
break
Detailed Explanation:
Line 3 and 4 of the codes prompts the user to enter a smaller and larger number. Line 5 we initiate the formula for minimum number of guesses. Line 14 and 17 prints out the output I'm out of guesses, and you cheated and Hooray, I've got it in X after validating the conditions.
