Java || Random Number Guessing Game Using Random & Do/While Loop

Print Friendly, PDF & Email

This is a simple guessing game, which demonstrates the use of the “Random” class to generate random numbers. This program first prompts the user to enter a number between 1 and 1000. Using if/else statements, the program will check to see if the user obtained number is higher/lower than the pre defined random number which is generated by the program. If the user makes a wrong guess, the program will re prompt the user to enter in a new number, where they will have a chance to enter in a new guess. Once the user finally guesses the correct answer, using a do/while loop, the program will ask if they want to play again. If the user selects yes, the game will start over, and a new random number will be generated. If the user selects no, the game will end.

Welcome to My Programming Notes' Java Program.

I'm thinking of a number between 1 and 1000. Go ahead and make your first guess.

>> 900

Too high! Think lower.

>> 300

Too high! Think lower.

>> 100

Too low! Think higher.

>> 200

Too low! Think higher.

>> 350

You got it, and it only took you 5 trys!
Would you like to play again (y/n)? y

------------------------------------------------------------

Make a guess (between 1-1000):

>> 300

Too low! Think higher.

>> 600

Too high! Think lower.

>> 500

Too high! Think lower.

>> 400

You got it, and it only took you 4 trys!
Would you like to play again (y/n)? n

Thanks for playing!!
