Welcome folks today in this blog post we will be building a word guessing game in command line using random module in python. All the full source code of the application is shown below.
Get Started
In order to get started you need to make an app.py file and copy paste the following code
app.py
|
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 33 34 35 36 37 38 39 40 41 42 43 44 45 46 47 48 49 50 51 52 53 54 55 56 57 58 59 60 61 62 63 64 |
from random import randint file = open('words.txt','r') words = file.readlines() length = len(words) def getRandomWord(): random_no = randint(0,length) word = words[random_no].strip() return word def gamePlay(random_word): chances = 7 is_found = False gussed_letters = [] guess = '' print(' '+'_ '*len(random_word)+'\n') while chances>0: guess = input('Guess the letter or the Entire word: ') if guess==random_word: is_found = True else: if guess in gussed_letters : print(f"You have already gussed the letter {guess}..try something else\n") continue print(' ',end='') is_current_guess = False for letter in random_word: if letter == guess : is_current_guess = True gussed_letters.append(letter) print(letter,end=' ') if len(random_word) == len(gussed_letters): is_found = True elif letter in gussed_letters: print(letter,end=' ') else: print('_',end=' ') print() if is_found: print(f"Congrats your guess was correct, the word was '{random_word}'\n") break if not is_current_guess: print(f'{guess} is not in word') chances-=1 print(f'You have {chances} chances remaining\n') if not is_found: print(f"\n Sorry your guesses were wrong, the word was '{random_word}'\n") def main(): print(" Word Guessing Game ".center(60,'-')) while True: random_word = getRandomWord() gamePlay(random_word) choice = input("Do You Wanna Play(yes/no) :") if choice in ['no','No','NO','n','N']: break if __name__ == '__main__': main() |
Now make an words.txt file inside the root directory and copy paste the following words to it
words.txt
