Where did i went wrong here

Question

After player guess it correctly. They are ask if the want to play again or not. If the type no, the it print bye bye and programme end. But If they say yes the programme ends. I want to make it loop to the beginning of game. The code as below

import random
import time
minimum=1
maximum=10
generating_number=True
guessing_section=True

print("The Guessing Number Game")
print("Computer will generate a number and you have to guess it. \nThe range is 1 to 10")

response=input("Do you want to play? (Answer yes or no)")
while response not in ["yes","no"]: response=input("Invalid input. Answer with yes or no :")
if response== "yes":
generating_number==True

elif response=="no":
generating_number=False
print("Bye-bye dear friend")

while generating_number:
print("Game Starts")
print("Generating a number.....")
time.sleep(random.randint (1,5))#wait between 1 to 4 seconds randomly
result=random.randint(minimum, maximum)
print(result)
generating_number=False
player_guess =int(input("Do your best to guess."))

while guessing_section:

if player_guess>result:
print("Your guess is too high.")
player_guess =int(input("Try again"))
continue
elif player_guess<result:
print("Your guess is too low.")
player_guess =int(input("Try again"))
continue
elif player_guess==result:
print("Congratulation! Your answer is correct")
break
play_again=input("Do you want to play again? (Yes or no)")
while play_again not in ["yes","no"]: play_again=input("Invalid input. Answer with yes or no")

if play_again=="yes":
generating_number==True
continue
#I want when the user say yes here, there will loop back to beginning of game

elif play_again=="no":
generating_number=False
print("Bye-bye. It is fun to play with you")

Answer 1

For this i like to do a recursive function. Id wrap whatever i want to repeat endlessly in a function, then call it when needed.

def play():
print('Lets play!')
num = random.randint(1,10)
numfound = False
while not numfound:
guess = int(input('Take a guess > '))
if guess == num:
print('Got it!')
numfound = True
choice = input('Play again [y/n] ?')
if choice == 'y': <-------------
play() <------------
else:
print('Bye!')
else:
print('Try again')

play()
