Chapter 5, Problem 59PS

This program is a simple guessing game. The computer is to generate a random number between 1 and 20. The user is given up to five tries to guess the exact number. After each guess, you are to tell the user if the guessed number is greater than, less than, or equal to the random number. If it is equal, no more guesses should be made. If the user hasn't guessed the number after five tries, display the number with a message that the user should know it by now and terminate the game.

A possible successful dialog:

I am thinking of a number between 1 and 20 . Can you guess what it is?        10 Your guess is low . Try again: 15 Your guess is low . Try again: 17 Your guess is high . Try again: 16 Congratulations! You did it .

A possible unsuccessful dialog:

I am thinking of a number between 1 and 20 . Can you guess what it is?        10 Your guess is low . Try again: 20 Your guess is high . Try again: 10 Your guess is low . Try again: 18 Your guess is high . Try again: 12 Sorry . The number was 15 . You should have gotten it by now . Better luck next time .

Your design for this program should include a separate function to get the user's guess, a function to print the unsuccessful message, one to print the successful message, and one to print the sorry message.

Write a program that generates a random number in the range of 1 through 1000, and asks the user to guess what the number is. If the user guess is higher than the random number, the program should display Too high, try again. If the users guess is lower than the random number, the program should display Too low, try again. If the user guesses the number, the application should congratulate the user and generate a new random number so the game can start over. If the user doesn't want to continue the game the user should type an appropriate stop symbol to terminate the program (such stop conditions were discussed in the class). For each game iteration, count the number of guesses made by the user and display them. The program should contain the following functions: check_guess(): this function checks if the user's guess is lower, higher or equal to the random number. random_gen(): function that generates one random number for one game iteration main(): the function where the program…
Write a program that generates a random number in the range of 1 through 100, and asks the user to guess what the number is. If the user’s guess is higher than the random number, the program should display “Too high, try again.” If the user’s guess is lower than the random number, the program should display “Too low, try again.” If the user guesses the number, the application should congratulate the user and then generate a new random number so the game can start over.Optional Enhancement: Enhance the game so it keeps count of the number of guesses that the user makes. When the user correctly guesses the random number, the program should display the number of guesses.
