Question

A Guessing Game:
File Guess.java contains a skeleton for a program to play a guessing game with the user. The program should randomly generate an integer between 1 and 10, and then ask the user to try to guess the number. If the user guesses incorrectly, the program should ask them to try again until the guess is correct; when the guess is correct, the program should print a congratulatory message.
1. Using the comments as a guide, complete the program so that it plays the game as described above.
2. Modify the program so that if the guess is wrong, the program says whether it is too high or too low. You will need an if congratulatory message.
3. Now add code to count how many guesses it takes the user to get the number, and print this number at the end with the congratulatory message.
4. Finally, count how many of the guesses are too high and how many are too low. Print these values, along with the total number of guesses, when the user finally guesses correctly

Explanation / Answer

Hope this helps. Let me know if you have any questions. Please rate. :) import java.util.Random; import java.util.Scanner; public class Guessing { public static final int CONSTANT = 10; public static void main(String[] args) { Scanner console = new Scanner(System.in); Random rand = new Random(); int numGuesses = 0; int numTooHigh = 0; int numTooLow = 0; int number; int guess = -1; number = 1+rand.nextInt(CONSTANT); System.out.println("I'm thinking of a number between 1 and " + CONSTANT); System.out.print("Your guess? "); guess = console.nextInt(); numGuesses++; while (guess != number) { if (guess number) { System.out.println("Your guess is too high."); numTooHigh++; } System.out.println("Try again!"); guess = console.nextInt(); numGuesses++; } if (numGuesses == 1) System.out.println("Congratulations! You got it only 1 guess!"); else { System.out.println("Congratulations! You got it in " + numGuesses + " guesses"); System.out.println(numTooHigh + " of your guesses were too high."); System.out.println(numTooLow+ " of your guesses were too low."); } } }
