 INTRODUCTION TO PYTHON

Python is a widely used general-purpose, high level programming language. It was initially
designed by Guido van Rossum in 1991 and developed by Python Software Foundation. It was
mainly developed for emphasis on code readability, and its syntax allows programmers to express
concepts in fewer lines of code. Python is a programming language that lets you work quickly and
integrate systems more efficiently.

It is used for,

• Web Development (Server-side)

• Software Development

• System Scripting

Features of Python:

➢ Python is an intepreted, interactive, directly executed language with a pre-compiled code.

➢ Python is object-oriented programming language

➢ It’s easy to use and learn

➢ Its free, open-source and portable language

➢ It consists of large repository of libraries.

➢ It is easily compatible with other language like C, C++, Core Java , etc.,

➢ It is both scientific and non-scientific programming.

 INTRODUCTION TO THE PROJECT

Guess the Word is an engaging word-guessing game where players try to uncover a hidden
word by guessing one letter at a time. The word is initially displayed as underscores, with each
correct letter revealed in its corresponding position. Players have 7 attempts to guess the correct
letters. If an incorrect letter is guessed, an attempt is lost. The goal is to guess the entire word
before running out of attempts.
With a selection of randomly chosen words from a variety of categories, this game is both fun and
challenging. The game ends when the player either guesses the word correctly or exhausts all
attempts.

Features:
• Randomly selected words from a predefined list
• 7 attempts to guess the word
• Keeps track of guessed letters and attempts
• Simple and interactive gameplay
Source code:
import random

# List of possible words

words = ["python", "happy", "radio", "laptop", "plane", "mouse", "shape"]

noofwords = len(words)

wordindex = random.randint(0,noofwords)

# Randomly select a word

word = words[wordindex]

# Initialize game state

word_state = []

# Fill the list with underscores for each letter in the word

for letter in word:

word_state.append("_")

guessed_letters = [] # List of guessed letters

attempts = 7 # Total attempts allowed

# Game introduction

print("Welcome to 'Guess the Word'!\n")

print("Guess the word by entering one letter at a time.")

print("The word has ",len(word) ,"letters:", ' '.join(word_state))

print("You have 7 attempts. Good luck!\n")

# Game loop

while attempts > 0 and "_" in word_state:

# Show the current state of the word

print("Word: ", " ".join(word_state))

print("Guessed letters: ",', '.join(guessed_letters) if guessed_letters else 'None')

 print("Attempts remaining: ",attempts, "\n")

# Get player's guess

guess = input("Enter a letter: ").lower()

# Validate input

if len(guess) != 1 or not guess.isalpha():

print("Invalid input. Please enter a single letter.\n")

continue

if guess in guessed_letters:

print("You already guessed that letter. Try again.\n")

continue

# Add guess to guessed letters

guessed_letters.append(guess)

# Check if the guess is in the word

if guess in word:

print("Good job! ", guess," is in the word!\n")

# Update word state

for i in range(len(word)):

if word[i] == guess:

word_state[i] = guess

else:

print("Sorry,", guess, " is not in the word.\n")

attempts = attempts - 1

# End of game

if "_" not in word_state:

print("\nCongratulations! You guessed the word:", "".join(word_state))

else:
 print("\nGame Over. You ran out of attempts.")

print("The word was:", word)

Output:
When the word is guessed correctly
Output when the word is not guessed within seven attempts:
