 ABSTRACT

This is a simple Hangman game using Python programming language. We can use this as
a small project to boost their programming skills and understanding logic. The Hangman
program randomly selects a secret word from a list of secret words. The random module will
provide this ability, so line 1 in program imports it. Hangman is a popular word game in
which one player (the "chooser") chooses a secret word and another player (the "guesser")
attempts to guess the word one letter at a time. If a guessed letter appears in the word,
all instances of it are revealed. If not, the guesser loses a chance. If the guesser figures
out the secret word before
he or she runs out of chances, he or she wins. If not, the player who chose the word wins.

CHAPTER 1

INTRODUCTION
1.1. Python Programming language
Python is one of the many open source object oriented programming application
software available in the market . Python is developed by Guido van Rossum. Guido
van Rossum started implementing Python in 1989. Python is a very simple programming
language so even if you are new to programming, you can learn python without facing any
issues. Some of the many uses of Python are application development, implementation
of automation testing process, allows multiple programming build, fully constructed
programming library, can be used in all the major operating systems and platforms,
database system accessibility, simple and readable code, easy to apply on complex
software development processes, aids in test driven software application development
approach, machine learning/ data analytics, helps pattern recognitions, supported in
multiple tools, permitted by many of the provisioned
frameworks, etc.
Some features of Python are-

 Hangman Game

1. Readable: Python is a very readable language.

2. Easy to Learn: Learning python is easy as this is a expressive and high level
programming language, which means it is easy to understand the language and thus easy to learn.

3. Cross platform: Python is available and can run on various operating systems such as
Mac, Windows, Linux, Unix etc. This makes it a cross platform and portable language.

4. Open Source: Python is a open source programming language.

5. Large standard library: Python comes with a large standard library that has some handy
codes and functions which we can use while writing code in Python.

6. Free: Python is free to download and use. This means you can download it for free and use it
in your application. See: Open Source Python License. Python is an example of a FLOSS
(Free/Libre Open Source Software), which means you can freely distribute copies of this software,
read its source

code and modify it.

7. Supports exception handling: If you are new, you may wonder what is an exception? An
exception is an event that can occur during program exception and can disrupt the normal flow
of program. Python supports exception handling which means we can write less error prone code and
can test various scenarios that can cause an exception later on.

8. Advanced features: Supports generators and list comprehensions. We will cover these
features later.

9. Automatic memory management: Python supports automatic memory management which

means the memory is cleared and freed automatically

1.2. Applications of Python programming language

Python can be used to develop different applications like web applications, graphic user
interface based applications, software development application, scientific and numeric
applications, network programming, Games and 3D applications and other business applications.
It makes an interactive interface and easy development of applications. You may be wondering
what all are the applications
ofPython. There are so many applications of Python, here are some of the them.

1. Web development – Web framework like Django and Flask are based on Python. They help
you write server side code which helps you manage database, write backend programming logic,
mapping urls etc.

2. Machine learning – There are many machine learning applications written in Python.
Machine learning is a way to write a logic so that a machine can learn and solve a particular
problem on its own. For example, products recommendation in websites like Amazon, Flipkart,
eBay etc. is a machine learning algorithm that recognises user’s interest. Face recognition and
Voice recognition in your phone is another example of machine learning.

3. Data Analysis – Data analysis and data visualisation in form of charts can also be developed
using Python.

4. Scripting – Scripting is writing small programs to automate simple tasks such as sending
automated response emails etc. Such type of applications can also be written in Python programming
language.

5. Game development – You can develop games using Python.

6. You can develop Embedded applications in Python.

7.Desktop applications – You can develop desktop application in Python using library like TKinter
or QT.

CHAPTER 3

IMPLEMENTATION AND RESULTS

3.1 About Project

This is a simple Hangman game using Python programming language. Beginners can use this as a
small project to boost their programming skills and understanding logic.

1. The Hangman program randomly selects a secret word from a list of secret words. The
random module will provide this ability, so line 1 in program imports it.

2. The Game: Here, a random word (a fruit name) is picked up from our collection and the
player gets limited chances to win the game.

3. When a letter in that word is guessed correctly, that letter position in the word is made visible.
In this way, all letters of the word are to be guessed before all the chances are over.

4. For convenience, we have given length of word + 2 chances. For example, word to be guessed
is mango, then user gets 5 + 2 = 7 chances, as mango is a five letter word.

3.2 Project code

import random
from json import load

def get_word():
with open('words.json') as json_file

data = load(json_file)

wordArray = data["word_list"]
word = random.choice(wordArray)

word = word.upper()

return word
def play(word):

word_completion = "_" * len(word) # generate a line to show the number of word

guessed = False # indicate the status of guess

guessed_letters = [] # store guessed letters

guessed_words = [] # store guessed words

while not guessed and tries > 0:

guess = input("Please guess a letter or the word: ").upper()

if len(guess) == 1 and guess.isalpha():

if guess in guessed_letters:
print("You already guessed the letter", guess)

CONCLUSION

In the conclusion of this project, Hangman is a traditional game, typically played with words.
It’s possible, however, to play Category Hangman rather than guessing words the player might
guess names of cities, or athletes, or fictional characters, or Duke professors, or top forty song titles
the list is endless. You’ll be writing a program to play a “guess a word letter-by-letter” version of
hangman as
shown above. You’ll also be doing some statistical analysis of the words used in the Hangman game.
