Variable is not used
this would be my first question up here so don't be mad if i do something wrong. I got this homework of guessing the secret number and i had to implement Tkinter in it. The problem is that the counter isn't working since the variable counter is not used. I get it, but i tough i code it as it should be, and it looks like not. And for another question, bellow else statement i used IF again, is this OK or do you practice different code.
import Tkinter
import random
import tkMessageBox
secret_number = random.randint(1, 10)
window = Tkinter.Tk()
greeting = Tkinter.Label(window, text="Welcome to the game " + "guess the secret number".upper() + ". You have 5 tries.n Select a number between 1 and 10:")
greeting.pack()
guess = Tkinter.Entry(window)
guess.pack()
def check_guess():
counter = 0
if int(guess.get()) == secret_number:
counter = counter + 1 #here it states "variable not used"
result_text = "You guessed correctly! Secret number is %s! " % secret_number
elif int(guess.get()) > secret_number:
counter = counter + 1
result_text = "Wrong. Your number is to HIGH! This was your %s try." % counter
else:
counter = counter + 1
result_text = "Wrong. Your number is to LOW! This was your %s try." % counter
if counter == 5 and guess != secret_number:
print "Secret number was %s!" % secret_number
tkMessageBox.showinfo("Result", result_text)
submit = Tkinter.Button(window, text="Try your luck", command=check_guess) # check_guess, not check_guess()
submit.pack()
window.mainloop()

Everytime the function is called, counter will be set to 0, meaning it will never be equal to 5. A simple fix could be to use a global variable instead. Set counter = 0 outside the function instead, and remove that line from the function. Instead, write global counter at the first line in the function. Something like this:
counter = 0
def check_guess():
global counter
if int(guess.get()) == secret_number:
