Post subject: | Turing School Project - HELP - Hangman |
Hey guys, I'm very new to programming with Turing. I need you help with a project I received from school. It's a basic hangman game, no graphics needed, where Player 1 would enter a word, and Player 2 would be given chances to guess a letter in that word. Player 2 get as many chances as there are letters in the word. And after the last guess, Player 2 is allowed to take one last guess at what the word is. My first problem is that, after Player 1 enters a word, I need to represent that word with dashes (-) for Player 2. How can I represent a string with dashes, and how can I replace letters in the word into the dashes? I'd really appreciate your help! eg. Player 1 - Choose a word: ant (clear screen) --- Player 2 - The word has 3 letters. Choose a letter: e e is not in the word. --- Player 2 - The word has 3 letters. Choose a letter: a You found a letter! a-- Player 2 - Etc.. Choose aletter: n You found a letter! an- You have used up all your guesses! Players 2 - Take one last guess at the word. Type in a word: and I'm sorry, the word was "ant". Please play again. Please help, if it's not too much trouble. Thanks! |

Draw the word one letter at a time.
Read about String Manipulation, you will find it very helpful. |
