Guessing Game

A simple Rust program where the player tries to guess a randomly generated number between 1 and 100.

How It Works

1. The program generates a random secret number between 1 and 100.
2. The player has a maximum of log2(100) + 1 = 7 attempts to guess the number.
3. After each guess, the program provides feedback:
   • >> Too small!: The guess is lower than the secret number.
   • >> Too big!: The guess is higher than the secret number.
   • ## You WIN! ##: The guess matches the secret number, and the game ends.
4. If the player fails to guess the number within the allowed attempts, the game ends with a "Sorry, you LOOSE :(" message.
