Hangman Game in Python - Python Mini Project with code Tutorial

In this post we are creating the title Hangman Game in Python – Python Mini Project with code Tutorial, we will create Hangman Game using python langauge.

How to Create Hangman game in Python using Pycharm IDE Follow these steps:-

Open your Pycharm
Create a python project
Create a file name hangman.py/ main.py
After that create a new file with name – words.txt / or any name you want to give (if you give different name you have to make changes in code)
Debug the main.py File
Run the File
In console give the input as a or any alphabet
You are done with project.

    Starts up an interactive game of Hangman.

    * At the start of the game, let the user know how many 
      letters the secretWord contains.

    * Ask the user to supply one guess (i.e. letter) per round.

    * The user should receive feedback immediately after each guess 
      about whether their guess appears in the computers word.

    * After each round, you should also display to the user the 
      partially guessed word so far, as well as letters that the 
      user has not yet guessed.

    Follows the other limitations detailed in the problem write-up.
