Question

on python i need to code a guessing game.

After the player has guessed the random number correctly, prompt the user to enter their name. Record the names in a list along with how many tries it took them to reach the unknown number. Record the score for each name in another list. When the game is quit, show who won with the least amount of tries.

this is what i have so far:

#Guess The Number HW assignment
import random

guessesTaken = 0

print ("Welcome! ")

question = input ("Would you like to play the guessing game? [Y/N]")

if question == "N":
print ("Sorry to see you go so soon, bye for now!")
  
if question == "Y":
print("..loading..")
print("Well, I am thinking of a number between 1 and 20.")
  
number = random.randint(1,20)
#-------------------------------------------------------------------
while True:
while guessesTaken < 7 : #UNLIMITED GUESSES
print("Take a guess.")
guess = input ()
while (guess.isdigit()== False):
guess = input ("Guess needs to be a whole number.")
  
guess = int(guess)
  
guessesTaken = guessesTaken + 1
  
if guess < number:
print ("Your guess is too low.")
  
if guess > number:
print("Your guess is too high.")
  
if guess == number:
break
  
if guess == number:
guessesTaken = str(guessesTaken)
print("Good job, you guessed my number! What is your name?")
name = input("Enter name:")
  
if guess != number:
number = str(number)
print("Nope. The number I was thinking of was " + number)
  
question = input("Lets play again (press q to quit or enter to continue) ")
if (question == "q"):
print("goodbye.")
break
else:
print("Well, I am thinking of a number between 1 and 20.")
  
number = random.randint(1,20)

list.append(name)
list.append(guess)
print (guess.count)

        while guess != number and guessesTaken < 10:

            if guess < number:

            print("Nope. The number I was thinking of was " + number)

        question = input("\nLets play again (press q to quit or enter to continue) ")
        if (question == "q"):
            print("goodbye.")

minGuess=min(tries)
ind=tries.index(minGuess)
name=names[ind]
print()
print(name,'won with the least amount of tries',minGuess)
