The break part of this while loop isn’t working. It’s supposed to exit when the user enters 999

Thanks. I think this was the most important part I was missing because I tried putting it first and it didn’t work. Now it works. keeping up with all the braces and parenthesis can be work in itself 😜

Yes, download an extension called prettier in VS code it will help you with that. I still think you will need to add the if user === 999 first. Or it will never reach that if statement.

Then you should put if(userGuess == 999) first. Because in your loop right now it’s always higher, lower or the right guess and your loop never get the chance to get to the last else statement.
