Program is working fine, i fixed the "How many games do you want to play" to make sure it only accepts an int between 1-9 and i added the "you have (x) strikes" (x being the amount of strikes) and also the "Letters that have already been guessed are (y). (y being the guesses the user has guessed.

Today i addressed my incorrect length of words problem. This was due to a silly mistake in writing the code as i had typed the same thing twice "  word = random.choice(wordBank)" and i had my modules in the wrong order, When i ran the program it selected another word. Then when the program went to find a new word it found another random one, thus printing the incorrect letters. I now plan to add the progress report after every guess

 I finally got it working, and to think it was because of one word "set" really bugs me. But oh well. Great to get it going so i can finally move on with my program. 
I now plan to add a "you have (x) amount of strikes, the letters you have already guessed are [x,y,z]" after every time the user guesses. I am also having a little problem with the start of the program when the user first guesses it shows the incorrect length of the word but this seems to work once the first guess is over. This isnt visible on the first example but here it is here:



I hope to overcome this problem soon so that i can get my program done on the due date.

Was absent from school today, but i plan to address my double letter problem with my program. I think i will do this by using for letter in set (x): instead of for letter in x: Will keep this blog updated throughout the weekend as the assessment is due next week.

12 June

Today i have fixed my problems from version 2 of the program. the program does not yet recognize double letters this is something i plan to fix in version 3 of the program. I also plan to add a module called progress that will tell the user the guesses they have guessed and how many more they have to complete to win. It will also notify how many strikes you have. I plan to tell the user how many letters the word has at the beginning of the game too.

Today I fixed my “How many games do you want to play” Function in my algorithm. I made It work by adding it to the main() function, a silly mistake that I fixed very easily.
