this is an "anti-code golfed" solution to a funny uni problem for a uni I'm not even in, hi pascal btw
Hangman is a guessing game for two players. The first player thinks of a word and the second player tries to guess it by consecutively suggesting letters with only a fixed amount of wrong guesses allowed.
Implement hangman as a console application. Note the following key points:
- The first player types the secret word in the console.
- Scan the word and store it letter by letter in an array.
- The second player repeatedly guesses a letter by typing it in the console.
- Scan each letter and compare it to the letters in the array.
- Reveal the correct letters at their positions within the word.
- The game is over if all letters are correctly guessed or after 6 failed guesses.
Important:
The file src/test/java/HangmanGameTest.java contains automated tests that
GitHub runs automatically. Make sure of the following:
- If the player guesses the secret word, print the keyword "Congratulations!".
- If the player fails to guess the word, print the keyword "Game over!".
This allows the automatic tests to detect whether the player has won or lost.
Enter the secret word:
