Guessing Game in Rust

---

A simple command-line guessing game implemented in Rust. This project is a hands-on way to practice Rust fundamentals like variables, loops, functions, enums, error handling, and using external crates.

---

Game Overview

The program generates a random number between 1 and 100, and the player has to guess it.
After each guess, the program will indicate whether the guess is:

• Too low
• Too high
• Correct (the game ends)

The game continues until the player correctly guesses the number.

---

Features

• Random number generation using the rand crate
• Handles multiple guesses in a loop
• Validates user input (ignores invalid entries without crashing)
• Provides real-time feedback on guesses

---

Installation

1. Ensure you have Rust and Cargo installed.
2. Clone the repository:

   git clone <your-repo-url>
   cd guessing_game

3. Build the project:

   cargo build

Usage

Run the game using:

  cargo run

example

Guess the number!
Please input your guess.
50
You guessed: 50
Too low!
Please input your guess.
75
You guessed: 75
Too high!
Please input your guess.
63
You guessed: 63
You win!

How It Works

1.The program generates a secret number between 1 and 100 using the rand crate.

2.It prompts the player to input a guess.

3.The guess is parsed as a number and compared with the secret number using Rust’s match statement.

4.Feedback is provided:

• Too small!

• Too big!

• You win! (ends the loop)

5.Invalid inputs are ignored, and the player can guess again.

Technologies Used

• Rust
• Cargo
• Rand crate for random number generation
• Standard library features: io, cmp::Ordering, loop, match, and shadowing
