from gasp import *

number = random_between(1, 1000)
guesses = 1
guess = input("Guess the number between 1 and 1000: ")

while guess != number:
if guess > number:
print "Too high!"
else:
print "Too low!"
guess = input("Guess the number between 1 and 1000: ")
guess += 1

print "\n\nCongratulations, you get it in %d guesses!\n\n" % guesses

When I inputed the above program i had to guess a few times in order to find the number that was randomly picked, which i got 719 as my number between 1 - 1000. 

from gasp import *

number = random_between(1, 1000)

guesses = 0

while True:

guess = input("Guess the number between 1 and 1000: ")

guesses += 1

if guess > number:

print "Too high!"

elif guess < number:

print "Too low!"

else:

print "\n\nCongratulations, you got it in %d guesses!\n\n" % guesses

break

This is an update of the first program that will give the accurate results of how many guesses it took you to guess the right number. This I say is a very cool program cause it functions as a person as to picking a random number and asking you to find the right number and pops out the amount of times you had too guess in order to get the right number.

The game being created from this program I'm starting to see is starting to get more and more complicated. This simple game is pretty easy to understand. 

from gasp import *

def distance(x1, y1, x2, y2):

return((x2 - x1)**2 + (y2 - y1)**2)**0.5

begin_graphics(800, 600, title="Catch", background=color.RED)

set_speed(120)

ball_x = 10

ball_y = 300

ball = Circle((ball_x, ball_y), 10, filled=True)

dx = 4

dy = random_between(-4, 4)

mitt_x = 780

mitt_y = 300

mitt = Circle((mitt_x, mitt_y), 20)

while True:

# move the ball

if ball_y >= 590 or ball_y <= 10:

dy *= -1

ball_x += dx

if ball_x > 810:     # the ball has gone off the screen

break

ball_y += dy

move_to(ball, (ball_x, ball_y))

# check on the mitt

if key_pressed('k') and mitt_y <= 580:

mitt_y += 5

elif key_pressed('j') and mitt_y >= 20:

mitt_y -= 5

if key_pressed('escape'):

break 

move_to(mitt, (mitt_x, mitt_y))

if distance(ball_x, ball_y, mitt_x, mitt_y) <= 30:   # ball is caught

remove_from_screen(ball)

break 

update_when('next_tick')

end_graphics()

When running the above program, I got the following error:

Exception in thread QueueFeederThread (most likely raised during interpreter shutdown):

Traceback (most recent call last):

I believe this is a error off of gasp but I can't tell.
