copied!<p>Your code is almost correct....</p> <p>You need to break out of loop when second player guess correct number. So,</p> <pre><code>while(guess != number) </code></pre> <p>In the loop you need to do comparison and print. Also you need to get input each time in loop.</p> <p>Code as below:</p> <pre><code> f1 = stdin.readLine(); int guess = Integer.parseInt(f1); while(guess != number) { if(guess < number) { System.out.println("Higher. Please Guess Again...\n"); } else if(guess > number) { System.out.println("Lower. Please Guess Again...\n"); } f1 = stdin.readLine(); guess = Integer.parseInt(f1); } </code></pre> <p><em><strong></em>*Edited*<em>*</em></strong></p> <p>Complete working program below:</p> <pre><code> import java.io.*; class game { public static void main (String[]args) throws IOException { InputStreamReader inStream = new InputStreamReader(System.in); BufferedReader stdin = new BufferedReader(inStream); String inData; System.out.println("Welcome to The Game.
