also idk why type is underlined

im new😭

[sick dagger]

right click on it, and it will tell you

[buoyant topaz]

it just says reformat the issue and when i click it it does nothing

[sick dagger]

I assume it's telling you to use isinstance instead of type(..) == ..

anyway, Guess is the return value if input(), but input() always returns strings. even if you type numbers. those are just strings

and not sure why you try to use while loop there

[buoyant topaz]

thanks but is there a way to make it say something when its not a number

[sick dagger]

you can use Guess.isdecimal() in an if condition, if you want to check if a string contains only decimal characters.

[buoyant topaz]

whats a decimal character

[sick dagger]

a decimal? a digit from 0 to 9

[buoyant topaz]

oh ok thanks that will work

👍
