Guessing Game: Write a game program that randomly picks a number between 1 and 100, then
prompts the player (user) to guess the number. The player should enter numbers until they
successfully guess the right answer, at which time the program ends. They can also enter 0 to
give up (quit the program). A value like O which indicates the end of user input is called a
sentinel value.
Your program should count how many guesses the player entered and print the number of
guesses at the end of the game or when the player gives up. The sentinel value (0) should not be
counted as one of the predictions.
If the player guesses wrong, the game should signal the player by telling him whether his guess
was too high or too low. Try to make your game interesting by printing good responses and
hints. You should use the Random class to generate random numbers, not the Math class or
anything else.
Program Structure (Important): Your program must use a separate method to select random
numbers, which is declared as shown below. The pickNumber method should randomly select a
number from 1 to 100 and return the number. It should not do any printing or user input.
public int pickNumber()
Sample Output: Here is an example of what the output might look like for a game where the user
guesses on the 3rd try.
Hello, I am thinking of number from 1 to 100. Please enter your guess:
21
Sorry, your guess was too high, try again:
12
Sorry, your guess was too low, try again:
16
You're right! You made 3 guesses.
You can assume that the user always writes integer values, you don't need to properly handle
"junk" input. Keep your program efficient and try to minimize the amount of duplicate code. Do
not use 'static' fields or methods except in the main() method declaration. Do not use field
variables unnecessarily.
Below is sample output for a game where the user quits after 2 guesses.
Hello, I am thinking of number from 1 to 100.
Please enter your guess:
7
Sorry, your guess was too low, try again:
99
Sorry, your guess was too high, try again:
You gave up after 2 guesses..
