"Guess the Number" game

[CTT]

Yeah you are right, and I updated my min to guess when it's smaller than answer, and max to guess when larger than answer. But now I have trouble updating the other half, when guess is smaller than answer, then the max should be max of the previous max; when guess is larger than answer, min should be min of the previous min. The below is what I have now

import random

random.randint(1,99)
answer = int(input())
maximum=100
minimum=1
print(minimum,"<?<",maximum)

while True:
   guess = int(input())
   if guess ==answer:
       print("bingo answer is",answer)
       break
   elif guess<answer:
       print("wrong answer, guess larger")
       new_max=maximum
       new_min=guess
       print(new_min,"<?<",new_max)
   elif answer<guess:
       new_max=guess
       new_min=minimum
       print(new_min,"<?<",new_max)
       print("wrong answer, guess smaller")
