Hi
Thanks Mats, Joel and Alan for helpful advice.
This code (below) behaves as I wanted now. And think I see where I was going
wrong with functions.
Thank you very much.
Richard
Ps I'll reflect on appropriate variable names also.
# coding: utf-8
import random
#guess number game
#computer generates random number
def generateNumber():
computerGuess = int(random.randrange(0,101))
return computerGuess
#get user
def getUser():
userGuess = int(raw_input('Guess a number'))
return userGuess
#call for computer and user
computerGuess = generateNumber()
userGuess = getUser()
#loop to check guess and report
while userGuess != computerGuess:
if userGuess < computerGuess:
print('Too low')
userGuess = getUser()
elif userGuess > computerGuess:
print('Too high')
userGuess = getUser()
print('Correct!')
#Add counter of guess later.
