How does the game work?

In today's post we're going to have a look on the functions which constitute the working of this game.
So,the first function we are writing is to "get the no.of attempts" 
            Here, the user is getting the choice to have as much as  5 chances to solve the puzzle. Interesting,right? Let's get into the code part!

CODE:
def get_num_attempts():
    """Get user-inputted number of incorrect attempts for the game."""
    while True:
        num_attempts = input('How many incorrect attempts do you want? [1-5] ')
        try:
            num_attempts = int(num_attempts)
            if 1 <= num_attempts <= 5:
                return num_attempts
            else:
                print('{0} is not between 1 and 5'.format(num_attempts))
        except ValueError:
            print('{0} is not an integer between 1 and 5'.format(num_attempts))
 


As you can see, we have also taken care of the error that would occur if the attempts exceed 5,awesome!
There are still some more functions to be discussed, so make sure you visit our blog for the next post!
Till,then keep learning and stay home,stay safe :-)

Journey towards Creating Hangman.

I love when people take a sophisticated tool and use it to play video games. Take Unity for example. I first saw my friends created a game in Unity, which was an Virtual reality game. My friends Vivek and Payas then inspired me to more efficiently waste time in creating something of my own like their VR game. Rather than jumping directly to a VR game so we thought to start something from the basics. So, the other day I had an immense amount of college work to do and decided it was the perfect time to make a hangman game.  So, What is hangman? In its purest form, hangman is a word game played between two people. One person selects a secret word, and the other tries to determine the word by guessing it letter-by-letter. The player with the secret writes a series of dashes, one representing each letter in the solution. Initially, no information is known about the target word, other than its length. The solver calls out letters, one-by-one. If a called letter appears in the solutio...

The output!

So here we arrive at the OUTPUT ! When you run the code in any Python IDE you will get results as follows: We are planning to put a video explaining each part of the source code in the next and final post for this blog. So, do visit again! Happy Learning!                                                             -Kartik Mehetre
