				Hi, I am making a hangman game for my isp and i need help with it. Like i did everything like made the dashes and other code but then theres this little problem after, how can i organise the array so that the space in the guessing word doesn't appear and you dont hab to fill that in. here's my code:
 
 
	  | code: | 	 		  var letter, word : string
 
var chars, q : int := 0
 
var words : array 1 .. 5 of string := init ("One", "Two", "Three", "Four", "Five")
 
word := words (Rand.Int (1, 5))
 
locate (6, 1)
 
put word
 
 
var WordArray : array 1 .. length (word) of string
 
for a : 1 .. length (word)
 
    WordArray (a) := "_"
 
end for
 
 
loop
 
    for a : 1 .. length (word)
 
        locate (3, a * 5)
 
        put WordArray (a) ..
 
    end for
 
 
    locate (1, 1)
 
    get letter
 
 
    if index (word, letter) >= 0 then
 
        locate (6, 5 + chars)
 
        put letter
 
        chars := chars + 2
 
    end if
 
 
    % put letter
 
 
    for b : 1 .. length (word)
 
        if letter = word (b) then
 
            WordArray (b) := letter
 
        end if
 
    end for
 
end loop

				| well since you're usually guessing a phrase, not a single word... (movie titles, etc) it might be a good idea to make each word to be guessed an array of its own (flexable arrays will make it really easy) |

Thanks, i will try it, i knew i saw somewhere saw a tut for Flexible Arrays, i will search for it. If i am able to master it till the isp is due then i will use them otherwise i will just use .. "harrypotter" lol. Oh can you give me an example pls. |
