While loops, Program not ending.

WallsofJericho (5)
Hello everyone, this is my first post. I'm having trouble doing while loops. I've lost a LOT of points in my programming class because of this and I do not want to fail.

If you guess the right number and try to input anything the program just repeats "Do you want to play again? Y or N"

Also if you enter any character before guessing the right number the program forever repeats "Guess a number between 1 and 10: "

Please help.
