Question

Write a C# windows forms program to create a States and Capitals guessing game. A method in your program should generate a random number between 1 and 50. Your program should use this number to represent one of the 50 U.S states and then display the name of that state. The user will guess the capital of that state. Another method in your program should get the users answer and check to see whether it is correct. Yet another method should print the players score, including both the total number of correct and incorrect guesses. Use classes, methods, arrays, to develop this program. Use one button to generate a random state to guess. Create another another button as a "cheat" button to see the answer without guessing.

String capitals [][] = {
        {"Alabama", "Montgomery"},
        {"Alaska", "Juneau"},
        {"Arizona", "Phoenix"},
        {"Arkansas", "Little Rock"},
        {"California", "Sacramento"},
        {"Colorado", "Denver"},
        {"Connecticut", "Hartford"},
        {"Delaware", "Dover"},
        {"Florida", "Tallahasse"},
        {"Georgia", "Atlanta"},
        {"Hawaii", "Honolulu"},
        {"Idaho", "Boise"},
        {"Illinois", "Springfield"},
        {"Indiana", "Indianapolis"},
        {"Iowa", "Des Moines"},
        {"Kansas", "Topeka"},
        {"Kentucky", "Frankfort"},
        {"Louisiana", "Baton Rouge"},
        {"Maine", "Augusta"},
        {"Maryland", "Annapolis"},
        {"Massachusettes", "Boston"},
        {"Michigan", "Lansing"},

        {"New Mexico", "Santa Fe"},
        {"North Carolina", "Raleigh"},

        {"Wyoming", "Cheyenne"}
       };
