      1. Just below the body of the get guess function, define a new function named print hints that takes = two arguments. The first is a secret num- ber and is kept in a parameter named secret. The second is a guess made by the user and it is held in a parameter named guess.

      3. Now we are going to give the = user the option to make a second guess. You must add code to the main function immediately after assignment statement you wrote for task 7.

        Write a conditional = statement to check if the current guess does not match the secret number. If the numbers to not match, in the body of the conditional statement you will do two things.
