| 6 | + |
| 7 | +Randomly select a word from a predefined list. |
| 8 | +Prompt the player to enter letters to guess the word. |
| 9 | +Display the progress of the word with guessed letters. |
| 10 | +Limit the number of attempts for the player. |
| 11 | +End the game with a win or lose message. |
| 12 | +Setup Instructions: |
| 13 | + |
| 14 | +Make sure you have Python installed on your system. If you don't have it, you can download it from the official website: https://www.python.org/downloads/ |
| 15 | +Copy and paste the provided script into a new file named guess_the_word.py or any desired name. |
| 16 | +Save the file in the desired directory. |
| 17 | +How to Run the Script: |
| 18 | + |
| 19 | +Open a terminal or command prompt. |
| 20 | +Navigate to the directory where you saved the guess_the_word.py file using the cd command. |
| 21 | +Run the script by entering the following command: |
| 22 | +Copy code |
| 23 | +python guess_the_word.py |
| 24 | +Detailed Explanation: |
| 25 | +The script starts by defining three functions: |
| 26 | + |
| 27 | +choose_random_word: This function selects a random word from a predefined list of words. |
| 28 | +display_word: This function takes the secret word and a list of guessed letters as input and returns a string representing the current state of the word with guessed letters displayed and unguessed letters hidden as underscores. |
| 29 | +guess_the_word: This function is the main game loop where the user is prompted to enter letters and make guesses until they either guess the word correctly or run out of attempts. |
| 30 | +In the guess_the_word function, the game continues in a loop until the player wins or runs out of attempts. The player's input is processed, and the script keeps track of the guessed letters. If the player guesses a letter correctly, it is added to the list of guessed letters, and the script checks if the player has guessed the complete word. If the player guesses a letter incorrectly, the attempts are decremented. If the player either wins or runs out of attempts, the game ends, and the secret word is revealed. |
| 31 | + |
| 32 | +Output: |
| 33 | +When running the script, the output will be text-based, displaying the current state of the word, the number of attempts left, and messages for correct and incorrect guesses. If the player wins, the script will display a congratulatory message along with the secret word. If the player loses, the script will show a message indicating that they ran out of attempts and reveal the secret word. |
| 34 | + |
| 35 | +As this is a text-based game, there are no images, gifs, or videos to display for the output. |
