High Low game

[TiffiniLeigh]

I am trying to write a program in Python for a High Low guessing game. It has to tell the person if their guess is higher or lower, also keep track of their guesses, it also needs to ask them if they would like to play again and loop back to the beginning when done. I have most of it done but I am having problems with making it play again. This is what I have so far:

# Guess My Number
# The computer picks a random number

def begin ():
 import random
print "\tWelcome to 'Guess my Number'!:"
print "\nI'm thinking of a number between 1 and 100."
print "Try to guess it in as few attempts as possible.\n"

def guess_num(num, max_guesses):
    # guessing loop
    tries = 0
    while True:
        guess = int(raw_input("Take a guess: "))
        tries += 1
        if guess > num:
            print "Lower..."
        elif guess < num:
            print "Higher..."
        else:
            print "You guessed it! The number was", num
            print "And it only took you %d tr%s!\n" % (tries, ['ies', 'y'] [tries==1 or 0])
            return

        if tries == max_guesses:
            print "You have had %d guesses. Game over." % max_guesses
            return
        play = raw_input("Do you want to play again? Y/N")
        if play == "Y":
             begin ()
        if play == "N":
             print "Well you are no fun. Bye."
                
        


the_number = random.randrange(1,100)
max_guesses = 5
guess_num(the_number, max_guesses)

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

begin() never calls guess_num().

Okay so that is where I went wrong. Thank you for the help.
