This will be the first mission involving the Ruby programming language. You can get started by downloading Hackety-Hack. (If you want to try this at home, you may need the Windows version, which you can get here.)
Follow these steps: - When the DMG (disk image) is done downloading, open it up.
- Drag the program onto your desktop (you won't be able to put it in Applications)
- Run Hackety Hack
- Click on the lightbulb and complete Lessons 1-3. Take your time and try to understand what you're doing, rather than just copying the code.
The last part of Lesson 3 is the guessing game. But I think it's missing some things. Try to implement the following: - Keep the game running until the player guesses correctly. Hint: use a "while" loop.
- Make the program generate a random integer up to 100 for the secret number.
- Count the number of times the player guesses and let the player know how many guesses he's used
- End the game after 10 tries and tell the player what the secret number was
