		<description>Preferably with the print(b) indented correctly, so it actually works!
The perils of posting plain code as comments!</description>

		<description>Hi Giles,

I think you need to initialise your bonds as:

bonds = [5.0,5.0,5.0,5.0,5.0,5.0,5.0,5.0,5.0,5.0]

Otherwise your bonds will always be integers initially set to 5, so your calculation here, to gradually get to the correct bond value with an average:

bonds[number] = (bonds[number] + int(human_answer)) / 2

won&#039;t actually work as you expect.

If you display the values in bonds, you&#039;ll see what I mean, like this:

        bonds[number] = (bonds[number] + int(human_answer)) / 2
        print(&#039;Now machine thinks it is &#039; + str(round(bonds[number])))
        for b in bonds:
            print(b)</description>

		<description>Hi there, saw your twitter post and just tried messing around with your project idea in Scratch. Code not kept so clean and simple as wanted to add in sounds, animation and different Machine responses, but user can see numbers changing in on-screen list as they assist the machine, so still get your idea. They can also persist to add wrong answers within the 0-9 range and see the effect. See what you think here: https://scratch.mit.edu/projects/569242867/ Still playing :) but wondered if you have a Scratch user name so can give you credit for inspiring this project ? Big thanks, elfwoo</description>
