3. How did you go about testing your program? What were the results of that testing?
Today, to test my program, which was a random number guessing game, I ran the program, and played it several times in order to make sure that the number range was correct, and that the game would stop after 3 guesses were made.

6. What progress did you make today on your solution? What needs to be completed next class?
I completed all of Step 4 today, including the questions on random number generation, and Exercise 10. Next class, I need to work on Step 5 for Chapter 5.
