There was a thread about "is not" recently. Python also allows "not in".

You could also do this to be a little more user friendly:
if not (s and s[0] in ("y", "n")):
Or reverse the test for clarity.

I added the ability to select your own range. It takes two new

I don't see the aim of your changes to setup(). I can kinda understand
checking to make sure that you didn't make the minimum higher than the
maximum, but I think where you put minr/maxr would make it use the

No. Each fun

I changed it to minr and maxr. Mini is fine, but I can't name a

It looks much better. But as Bruno suggests and as I alluded to earlier,
you should get in the habit of forming verification loops on input
channels that aren't already guaranteed to provide valid input messages.
I'm not sure how to say that in English, but in python my example was:
while True

You should now try to rewrite the whole thing to avoid using globals.

Much better. I didn't check if it works. But you need to figure out a
way to give up on your reliance on global variables. They will end up
stifling you in the long run when you move to substantial projects.
Also, you should start movin

1. Refactor. You should look at your code and see where you repeat the
same or similar patterns, see where they differ, make functions, and
make the differences parameters to the function call:

guess1 = int(input("\n>> "))
