Question

odify the guessing-game program so that the user thinks of a number that the computer must guess.

The computer must make no more than the minimum number of guesses, and it must prevent the user from cheating by entering misleading hints.
Use I'm out of guesses, and you cheated and Hooray, I've got it in X tries as your final output.

(Hint: Use the math.log function to compute the minimum number of guesses needed after the lower and upper bounds are entered.)

this is what I got so far:

============================================

import random

import math

smaller = int(input("Enter the smaller number: "))

larger = int(input("Enter the larger number: "))

maxattempt = math.ceil(math.log(larger - smaller))

count = 0

while count != maxattempt:

count += 1

guess = int((smaller + larger) / 2)

print(smaller, larger)

print("Your number is: ", guess)

hlp = input("Enter =, <, or >: ")

if hlp == '>':

smaller = guess + 1

elif hlp == '<':

larger = guess - 1

elif hlp == '=':

print("Hooray, I've got it in", count, "tries!")

break

else:

print("I'm out of guesses, and you cheated")

============================================

but for the test case 0-25, when 11 is picked I get an error. unexpected output "I'm out of guesses, and you cheated". I'm not sure what the issue is here.
