i'm totally new to Python and I've been watching YouTube videos to get started with the language. In one of the videos, it showed us how to build a guessing game using while loops & if statements. I did the same, but it doesn't seem to work for me.
secret_word = "harry" guess = "" guess_count = 0 guess_limit = 3 out_of_guesses = False while guess != secret_word and not(out_of_guesses): if guess_count < guess_limit: guess = input("Enter your guess: ") guess_count += 1 else: out_of_guesses = True if out_of_guesses: print("Out of guesses. Better luck next time!") else: print("Congrats! You win!")It gives me 3 tries, just like I specified. But when I type in the right word, it doesn't do anything. How do I fix this?
