Source Code

This C++ source code implements a hangman game where the user tries to guess a randomly selected fruit name within a certain number of tries. It initializes variables like the secret word, the user's guessed letters, and the number of incorrect guesses. In a loop, it prompts the user for a letter, checks if it's in the secret word, updates the guess display and counters, and ends the game if the word is guessed or the tries are exceeded. A helper function checks the letter against the words and returns the number of matches.
