Checking input is close to random num

[Tomington]

G,day ichabod801

Thanks for your reply. I've added to my code with the abs function and got the hot, hotter and cold working. ill post the updated code.

import random
#variable names
#cc = Computers Choice
#pc = Players Choice


cc = random.randint(1,20)
endgame = False
attempts = 0
yes = True

while(yes==True):
    while(endgame==False):
        pc = int(input("choose a number between 1 & 20 "))
        gap = abs(pc-cc)
        #print(gap)
        attempts = attempts+1
#determines if the player choice is the right choice then ends the game
        if(pc==cc):
            print("well done you guessed correctly")
            print ("Total Attempts Made " + str(attempts))
            endgame = True
#determining if the player choice is hotter or colder 
        elif(gap<4):
            print("Very Hot")
        elif(gap<8):
            print("Getting Hot")
        elif(gap<12):
            print("Cold")
        elif pc<=1 or pc>=20:
            print("Please input A number between 1 & 20")
#Based on the amount attempts made determines wherether the game ends           
        if(attempts==5):
            endgame = True
            print("You lose")
#Winning a reward based on the attempts made by the player            
        if attempts == 1 and endgame == True:
            print("You Have Won a Car!!!")
        elif attempts == 2 and endgame ==True:
            print("You Have Won a Boat!!!")
        elif attempts == 3 and endgame == True:
            print ("You Have Won a Holidy!!!")
#how the player chooses if they wish to play again or not            
    restart = input("Do you wan't to play again, print 'yes'-'y' or 'no'-'n' ")
    if restart == "yes" or restart == "y":
        yes = True
        endgame = False
        attempts = 0
        cc = random.randint(1,20)
    if restart == "no" or restart == "n":
        yes = False
        print("Thanks for playing")

I think i'm using the abs function correctly although taking the abs function out of the 'gap' variable also works. Either way I've learned about the abs function and got what i was looking for to work so i appreciate your help ichabod801
