How to get my number of attempts correct? - ruby

Question

Hello all I previously asked how to fix a guessing number game on ruby which I got all done but now the number of attempts or tries is not reflecting nicely. Do I resolve this?
This is the code:
def check(int, r_int)
tries = 0
if int < r_int
tries +=1
puts "Guess Higher"
elsif int > r_int
tries +=1
puts "Guess Lower"
elsif int == r_int
win = true
puts "You are correct"
puts "You had attempted this "+ tries.to_s + " times to win"
abort
end
end
This is the main function:
def main
win = false
puts "Lets play a game!"
puts "I am thinking of a number between 1 and 100"
rnd_int = rand(100)
while not win
guess = gets.chomp.to_i
value = check(guess, rnd_int)
end
end
Overall everything works but the tries at the end of the game remains at 0 not sure where the mistake is.

Perhaps the code could look like following (just a suggestion)
def check(attempts,guess,number)
puts ">>> Attempts [#{attempts}]: guess higher" if guess < number
puts ">>> Attempts [#{attempts}]: guess lower" if guess > number
if guess == number
puts "Winner!!!"
return true
end
return false
end
if __FILE__ == $0
win = false
attempts = 5
puts "
Lets play a game!
I am thinking of a number between 1 and 100
"
number = rand(100)
while not win
print "Your guess: "
guess = gets.chomp.to_i
attempts -= 1
unless attempts
puts "You could not guess right"
exit
end
win = check(attempts, guess, number)
end
end
Output sample
Lets play a game!
I am thinking of a number between 1 and 100
Your guess: 50
>>> Attempts [4]: guess higher
Your guess: 80
>>> Attempts [3]: guess higher
Your guess: 90
>>> Attempts [2]: guess lower
Your guess: 86
Winner!!!
The code could be of following shape
win = false
attempts = 5
puts "
Lets play a game!
I am thinking of a number between 1 and 100
"
number = rand(100)
while not win
print "Your guess: "
guess = gets.chomp.to_i
attempts -= 1
score = guess <=> number
win = true if score == 0
puts "Attempts [#{attempts}]: guess higher" if score < 0
puts "Attempts [#{attempts}]: guess lower" if score > 0
unless attempts > 0
puts "You could not guess it right"
exit
end
end
puts "You are winner!!!"
Utilizing <=> operator the code would be shaped as following
attempts = 5
puts "
Lets play a game!
I am thinking of a number between 1 and 100
"
number = rand(100)
while true
print "Your guess: "
guess = gets.chomp.to_i
attempts -= 1
case guess <=> number
when 0
puts "\n>>> Nice guess, you are winner!!!"
exit
when -1
puts "Attempts [#{attempts}]: guess higher" if attempts > 0
when 1
puts "Attempts [#{attempts}]: guess lower" if attempts > 0
end
unless attempts > 0
puts "\n>>> Sorry, you could not guess it right"
exit
end
end
