i = i + 10
elif x == "miss":

contador - 1

Answer 1

Alejandro Medrano ,

please do not use an output that is not demanded by the task description.

all code coach exercises are tested by a program that passes values for the various test cases and that receives results from the code. this will work perfectly, as long as only the demanded inputs and / or outputs are used in our codes.

so you should remove this line:
print("please, introduce 'hit' or 'miss'")

Answer 2

contador is not declared before the loop and it is never changed so the loop would run infinitely. You need to change it inside the loop
