Display Variable value in Python using print Statement?

Question

I have created a Python program that guesses the number programmer thinks in mind. Everything is working file but i don't know how to use guess in print statement in a way that print statement display number as well. I tried adding word "guess" but it is not working. I am C programmer and working with Python for the first time, so i am unable to figure it out.

hi = 100
lo = 0
guessed = False 

print ("Please think of a number between 0 and 100!")

while not guessed:
    guess = (hi + lo)/2
print ("Is your secret number " + //Here i need to Display the guessed Number + "?")
user_inp = raw_input("Enter 'h' to indicate the guess is too high. Enter 'l' to indicate the guess is too"
                     "low. Enter 'c' to indicate I guessed correctly: ")

if user_inp == 'c':
    guessed = True
elif user_inp == 'h':
    hi = guess
elif user_inp == 'l':
    lo = guess
else:
    print ("Sorry, I did not understand your input.")

print ("Game over. Your secret number was: " + //Here i need to display final number saved in guess.)

Just convert it to string.

print ("Game over. Your secret number was: " + str(guess))

You could also use string formatting.

print("Game over. Your secret number was {}".format(guess))

Or, since you come from a C background, old style string formatting.

print("Game over. Your secret number was %d." % guess)

Try this in your print statement and let me know if it works.

str(guess)

Python has very nice string formatting, which comes in handy when you need to insert multiple variables:

message = "Game over after {n} guesses.  Your number was {g} (pooh... got it in {n} times)".format(g=guess, n=number)
print(message)
