# Python Guess Game

Welcome to the **Python Guess Game!** This fun game challenges you to beat the high score by generating a random score each time you play. If you score higher than the current high score, you set a new `record!`

## Features:

- **Random Score Generation:**  Each round, the game generates a random score between 1 and 1000.

  

- **High Score Tracking:**  The highest score is saved in main.txt and updated whenever a new high score is achieved.

  

- **Replay Option:**  After each round, players can choose to play again or exit the game.

  

- **File Handling & Error Handling:**  The game handles file reading and writing operations gracefully, ensuring a seamless experience.

## Installation

### Clone the repository:

   

    git clone https://github.com/your-username/python_guess_game.git

### Navigate to the directory:

    cd python_guess_game

### Ensure you have `Python 3.x` installed.

## Usage:

1. Run the game with the following command: `python guess_game.py`

2. Follow the on-screen prompts to play the game. You’ll see your score, and if it's higher than the high score, it will be saved as the new high score.

## How It Works:

1. **Generating a Random Score:**  The `play_game()` function generates a score between 1 and 1000 using Python's `random` module.

2. **Retrieving High Score:**  The `get_high_score()` function reads the high score from `main.txt` if it exists. If the file is missing or contains invalid data, the high score defaults to 0.

   

3. **Saving High Score:**  When a new high score is achieved, the `save_high_score()` function updates `main.txt` with the new score.

  

4. **Game Loop:**  The `main()` function allows players to replay the game, asking them if they want to play another round or exit.

## Future Improvements:

- **Custom Scoring Range:**  Allow players to set their preferred range for `random` scores.

  

- **Leaderboard:**  Implement a leaderboard to display multiple high scores.

- **User Profiles:**  Allow different users to maintain separate high scores.

## Enjoy playing the Python Guess Game and see if you can beat the high score!
