My code (a python guessing-game) continues to return "you guessed to high," even when I input 9, the highest value in the range

Question

I think the problem is the loop is not ending even when the right number is input. However, the line (while choice != a :) should prevent that, so I'm not sure what's wrong.

import random

a = random.randint(1, 9)
choice = int(input("give me a number"))

while choice != a :
    if choice > a:
        choice = int(input("You guessed too high. Please guess again"))
    elif choice < a:
        choice = int(input("You guessed to low. Please guess again"))

print("You won")
