Random number generator doesn't seem to save number - ruby

Question

My RNG guessing game seems to generate a new number constantly, and not save the number for the current session of the game for the player to guess.
def initialize
##answer = rand(1..100).to_s
end
def answer
##answer
end
def guessing
puts "What's your guess?"
##guess = gets.chomp.downcase
while ##guess != answer
wrong_answer
end
right_answer
end

Answer 1

I don't see any problem with your code, but it could be the way are initializing the class (if you are calling guessing explicitly everytime you want to make a guess).
You need to store the initialized class in a variable:
guess = Guess.new
guess.guessing
guess.guessing
Also you don't want to use class instance variables unless necessary i.e, use #guess, #answer instead of ##guess and ##answer.
Another way
def guessing
puts "What's your guess?"
#guess = gets.chomp.downcase
while #guess != answer
puts "wrong_answer"
#guess = gets.chomp.downcase
end
puts "right_answer"
end

Answer 2

I think if you store the random number in an attr_reader, you can then reference it and compare it to the guess. If you store the guess in an attr_accessor, you can compare the guess to the stored random number and have the User continue the game by updating their guess until it matches the random number. I can include an example that you can copy and paste right into IRB. To start the game just call PlayGame.new and you are off and running. Enter cheat for the random number and hint for a hint.
class RandomNumber
attr_reader :number
def initialize
#number = rand(1..100).to_s
end
def hint
random_number = number.to_i
puts case
when random_number >= 75
"Your number is in the range of 75 to 100"
when random_number >= 50
"Your number is in the range of 50 to 74."
when random_number >= 25
"Your number is in the range of 25 to 49"
else random_number > 0
"Your number is 24 or less."
end
end
end
class PlayGame
attr_accessor :input
attr_reader :number
def initialize
#generate_number = RandomNumber.new
#number = #generate_number.number
puts "What's your guess?"
#input = gets.chomp.downcase
validate
end
def validate
case
when input == number
puts "You win!"
when input == "cheat"
puts "The number is #{number}"
get_guess
when input == "hint"
#generate_number.hint
get_guess
else
get_guess
end
end
def get_guess
puts "Try again, what's your guess?"
#input = gets.chomp.downcase
validate
end
end
