Looping the Guessing Game
Introduction
Now that we have the basic guessing game ready, the next step is to have the option to replay the game so we don’t have to manually run it every time!
Components Needed
- Little Python Brain
- A tablet/phone/laptop
1
The main loop
Simply drag a while True to the workspace and drag the whole for loop as well as the random integer generator inside it and the answer feedback after the for loop.
2
Adding a retry prompt
At the end of the while loop and after the main for loop, we will add another User_Input block to prompt the user if they would like to try again. We only want to take one of two inputs: “y” (yes) or “n” (no)
3
More conditional statements
Now, we will then make conditional statements to check for the input.
if tryAgain is "y":
passPass is used as a placeholder or a buffer for codes. In this case, when the program reads the pass block, it automatically disregards the next conditional statement, which is
elif tryAgain is "n":
breakBreak, in this case, will end the while True loop.
