MindMaster

What is it ?

This is a simple python code replicating the game Master Mind made by Mordecai Meirowitz in 1970. It's a 2 player game.

Note : The project MindMaster stills Work-In-Progress

How to play

Once you've opened the code, run it with a terminal and follow the console logs, you need to be 2. Firstly, one player needs to enter a code of 4 digits ( if it isn't, it'll show a warning in the console ), then the 2nd player needs to enter test codes to see if it's the one entered by the 1st player. Below the test code, there's an hint log telling if the number entered are presents in the code entered by the 1st player to help the other to find the code.

How to run

From source code :

Open the MasterMind.py file
Run it on terminal with the key F5 ( on Visual Studio ) or find an option Start debugging
Follow the instructions in the terminal

Information

You can change manually some settings like that :

The number in front of the code-line is the line where this part of the code is in the MasterMind.py file

### Change the number of tries allowed
90    tries = 5                                               # Set the number of tries allowed

### Change target code's length to make
21    if len(code) != 4:                                      # Target code's length

Example of console logs

Enter a 4 digit code :
- 7598
The code is : 7598

Enter a code to test :
- 1435
X X X X
The code contains : 5

You have 4 tries left

Enter a code to test :
- 7489
7 X X X
The code contains : 7 8 9

You have 3 tries left

Enter a code to test :
- 7598
7 5 9 8
The code contains : 7 5 9 8

You've found the code, good work !

Coming Features

Reworked Logs
An app to run it instead of runing it in the terminal and get a nicer UI
A 1 player mode where the target code will be random
Maybe letter support
Customization settings ( tries, code format... )
Reworked ReadMe on github with images and maybe videos ( And maybe add this project to a global github webpage with all my work )
