Question

that plays hangman game. I guess a have an error in my guessWord(word) function, because its not working properly, and I'm not getting why? the file for readDictionary contains rows of words for the game. but in the main code words can also be used.

current output:

Welcome to the hangman game.
You will be guessing words, one letter at a time
Guess a letter
a
Would you like to guess a new word? Y/N: y
Guess a letter
h
Would you like to guess a new word? Y/N: g
You guessed 2 words out of 2

desired output:

Your guess so far: -------
Guess a letter from the secret word: a 
Good guess;
Your guess so far: -A----A
Guess a letter from the secret word: e 
Wrong guess
--------
|

Your guess so far: -A----A
Guess a letter from the secret word: s 
Wrong guess
--------
| 
O
#and so on…

---

here are the parameters to do: readDictionary() which reads the accompanying file “dictionary.txt” and returns a list of all the words appearing in the file.

• guessWord(word) which runs the user interface for guessing the word passed as argument, as described above. guessWord() calls hangmanSketch() with the appropriate argument, whenever a wrong guess is entered by the player.

Note that, even though all the words in the are in all-capital letters, the player should be able to enter the guesses in lower case.

The function returns True, if the player manages to guess the whole word before making 8 wrong guesses. The function returns False, if the player makes 8 wrong guesses and does not guess the whole word.

Below is an extract of a sample run of the whole application, showing the interface for successfully and unsuccessfully guessing words.

code:

from random import choice


def readDictionary():
    file = open("dictionary.txt", "r")
    lines = file.readlines()
    return list(lines)

def hangmanSketch(n):
    if n <= 0:
        pic = '''  --------\n'''
        return pic
    pic = hangmanSketch(n-1)
    if n == 1:
        pic += '''  |\n'''
    elif n == 2:
        pic += '''  O\n'''
    elif n == 3:
        pic += '''_/'''
    elif n == 4:
        pic += '''|'''
    elif n == 5:
        pic += '''\_ \n'''
    elif n == 6:
        pic += '''  |\n'''
    elif n == 7:
        pic += '''_/'''
    elif n == 8:
        pic += ''' \_ \n'''
    return pic


def guessWord(word):
    while True:
        print("Guess a letter")
        userGuess = input()
        userGuess = userGuess.lower()
        if len(userGuess) != 1:
            print("Please enter a single letter")
        elif userGuess in word:
            print("letter already guessed, try another")
        else:
            return userGuess



def main():
    print("Welcome to the hangman game.")
    print("You will be guessing words, one letter at a time")
    words = readDictionary()
    words = ['ABANDON', 'INQUIRING', 'LACROSSE', 'REINITIALISED'] # use this list if you don't manage to implement readDictionary()
    nAttemptedWords = 0
    nGuessedWords = 0
    play = "Y"
    while play == "Y":
        secretWord = choice(words)  # random choice of one word from the list of words
        nAttemptedWords += 1
        if guessWord(secretWord):
            nGuessedWords += 1
        play = input("Would you like to guess a new word? Y/N: ")
        play = play.upper()
    print("You guessed", nGuessedWords, "words out of", nAttemptedWords)

if __name__ == "__main__":
    main()

I suggest you having one while for iterating between words and inner while for iterating through player's guesses:

import random

WORDS = ['abandon', 'inquiring', 'lacrosse', 'reinitialised']


def guessed_word(word, guessed_letters):
    """ Build guessed word. E.g.: "--c--r" """
    result = ''
    for letter in word:
        if letter in guessed_letters:
            result += letter
        else:
            result += '-'
    return result


print('Welcome to the hangman game.')
print('You will be guessing words, one letter at a time')
play = 'y'
while play == 'y':
    word = random.choice(WORDS)
    guessed_letters = []
    hp = 8
    while True:
        print(f'Your guess so far: {guessed_word(word, guessed_letters)}')
        letter = input('Guess a letter from the secret word: ')
        if letter in list(word):
            print('Good guess')
            guessed_letters.append(letter)
        else:
            print('Wrong guess')
            hp -= 1

        if hp == 0:
            print('You loose!')
            break
        elif len(guessed_letters) == len(set(word)):
            print(f'You win! The word is: {word}')
            break

    play = input('Would you like to guess a new word? y/n: ')

Output:

Welcome to the hangman game.
You will be guessing words, one letter at a time
Your guess so far: --------
Guess a letter from the secret word: a
Good guess
Your guess so far: -a------
Guess a letter from the secret word: b
Wrong guess
Your guess so far: -a------
Guess a letter from the secret word: c
Good guess
Your guess so far: -ac-----
