Question

Code In Python

Well Document Code Every Line Please

* You cannot use any external Python libraries. You can, of course, import the libraries that are included in the standard Python installation though. * Your software must use selection (if, if/ else, etc.) and repetitive (for, while, etc) control structures and have programmer defined functions. * Make sure you understand the code you submit since you will be expected to answer questions about it. The way the program should work is the same as regular Hangman, but the user thinks of a word (instead of the computer knowing the word from the beginning) and inputs the number of letters in the word to the program. The program then guesses a letter (it should only guess one letter). The user then supplies the result (yes or no, the letter was or was not not in the word and the word filled with any correct letters). Just like regular hangman, but the roles are reversed.

import random

# no of invalid guess possible, set as 8
n = 8

# set the game status as True when game is on.
# game_status will be False when the computer wins.
game_status = True

# list to keep track of letters said
history = []

# user defined function for guess
def guess_a_letter():
    # generate a random number between ord('A') = 65 and ord('Z') = 90
    # ord(a character) returns its ascii value
    guess = random.randint(ord('A'), ord('Z'))

    # convert the integer generated above to its corresponding ascii character.
    guess = chr(guess)

    # if the generated char is a repetition, try another one.
    while guess in history:
        guess = random.randint(ord('A'), ord('Z'))
        guess = chr(guess)

    # add generated character to history list
    history.append(guess)

    # return guess
    return guess

# read number of letters in the word as integer
word_length = int(input())

# word of unfilled letters
word = "_" * word_length

while (game_status):
    
    # get guess from function guess()
    guess = guess_a_letter()

    # print the random character generated
    print("I Guess {} (YES/NO): ".format(guess), end = "")

    # get YES/NO output from the user
    response = input()
    
    # user entered YES
    if response == 'YES':

        # get word with said letters filled
        print("Word: ", end = "")
        word = input()

        # set game status true, if word has an underscore (_)
        # user needs to enter word with underscores instead of hidden letters
        game_status = True if word.count('_')  != 0 else False

    # user enters anything other than YES -- NO or something else
    else:

    # decrement remaining invalid attempts
        n -= 1

        # set game status true if any more attempt left, else false
        game_status = True if n > 0 else False

# display end result, when game ends

#underscore coount = 0 means all letters are correctly guessed
if word.count("_") == 0:
    print("Computer Wins!")

# user wins, if computer ran out of all invalid attempts
else:
    print("You win!")

• Number of invalid attempts set as 8, which you can change
• User enter YES if the guess is right, NO or any other key if not
• If the guess was right, user need to supply word with filled letters and _ for hidden letters. Feel free to change this also.
