Description

Our goal is to create a Hangman game. This is a game in which the computer selects a random word and the player must guess it using letters suggested by the computer within a set number of guesses.

Purpose

The aim of Hangman is to provide a fun way to learn new words and put your general knowledge to the test. This is accomplished by encouraging the user to guess the hidden word one letter at a time, which can be useful for remembering new word spelling.

Functionality

• Start program

• Program greets the user.

• Program prompts user for input if they want to play

  • If user enters "No", program exits
  • If user enters "Yes, program continues

• Prompts user for username, if nothing entered defaults to "Player"

• Program randomly generates a word for user to guess

• Prompts the user for input of a letter

• Checks user input

  • If correct, displays letter in secret word
  • If incorrect, displays number of lives left

• User input will loop until:

  • All letters are matched in the secret word
    • If true, then will display the secret word and victory screen
  • There are 0 lives left
    • If true, then will display the secret word and game over screen

• Prompts user if they want to play again

  • If user enters "No", program exits
  • If user enters "Yes", program will return with new word for user to guess
