Guess a number program with Java

Question

I am trying to create a program in Java in which the computer randomly guesses a number between 1-100 and allows the user to guess to the number.

If the number is lower

Answer 1

You forgot to get a new int from the scanner in each loop :)

import java.util.Scanner;

public class QuestionOne
{
  public static void main(String args[])
  {
   Scanner keyboard = new Scanner(System.in);

   int a = 1 + (int) (Math.random() * 99),
       guess, 
       count = 0;

   System.out.println("I am thinking of a number from 1 to 100 ... guess what it is ?");

   while((guess = keyboard.nextInt()) != a){
     if (guess > a)
     {  
       System.out.println("lower!");
     }
     else
     {
       System.out.println("higher!");
     }
     count++;
   }

   System.out.println("Congratulations.   You guessed the number with "+ count +" tries!");
  }

}

edit : I'm currently bored... Add the counter ;)
