func main[] : i64
    answer := os.urandom_i64()->abs() % 100

    while true
        io.println("Guess a number: ")
        guess := io.read_line()->parse_i64()

        if guess == answer
            io.println("You win!")
            break
        else if guess < answer
            io.println("Too low!")
        else
            io.println("Too high!")
