import random
n = random.randrange(1,10)
guess = int(input("Enter any number: "))
while n!= guess:
    if guess < n:
        print("Too low")
        guess = int(input("Enter number again: "))
    elif guess > n:
        print("Too high!")
        guess = int(input("Enter number again: "))
    else:
      break
print("you guessed it right!!")

What I have tried:

This is a code that I have written and worked on but I feel like part of it could be coded differently to improve its quality. I just don't know how to go about it. Any modifications that I could possibly make?

You need to define/decide what you mean by "quality", it's a very subjective term.

For me code has "quality" if it works and is easy to read (and therefore easier to maintain).

The technique you want to research is called "refactoring"

Here are a couple of blogs that give some tips on how to go about that

Quick Python Refactoring Tips (Part 2) | Python Engineer[^]
There are many other articles available.

Just be careful to not introduce bugs or change code behaviours while you refactor, and learn when enough is enough - i.e. when to stop
