Question

Please create a Hangman game in Java language. For this game a random word will be selected from the following list (abstract, cemetery, nurse, pharmacy, climbing). You should keep a running tab of the user’s score and display it on screen; the user begins with 100 pts possible if they correctly guess the word without any mistakes. For every incorrect letter which is guessed, 10 pts should be taken away from what is left of their total possible points. For every correct letter which is guessed, their score is left unchanged. The user’s score should never be lower than 0, or exceed the mentioned points possible.
