When i tried to type in a letter, it quickly break
somethings wrong with my script i think
import random
import os
import sys
# make a list
words = [
'apple',
'banana',
'orange',
'coconout',
'strawberry',
'lime',
'grapfruit',
'lemon',
'blueberry',
'melon',
]
def clear():
if os.name == 'nt':
os.system('cls')
else:
os.system('clear')
def draw(bad_guesses, good_guesses, secret_word):
clear()
print ("Strikes: {}/7.".format(len(bad_guesses)))
print ('')
for letter in bad_guesses:
print(letter, end=' ')
print ('\n\n')
for letter in secret_word:
if letter in good_guesses:
print (letter, end = ' ')
else:
print ('_', end=' ')
print (' ')
def get_guess(bad_guesses, good_guesses):
while True:
guess = input("Take a guess: ").lower()
if len(guess) != 1:
print ("You can only print one at a time!")
elif guess in bad_guesses or guess in good_guesses:
print ("You've already guess that")
elif not guess.isalpha():
print ("You should type in only letters")
else:
return guess
def play(done):
clear()
secret_word = random.choice(words)
bad_guesses = []
good_guesses = []
while True:
draw(bad_guesses, good_guesses, secret_word)
guess = get_guess(bad_guesses, good_guesses)
if guess in secret_word:
good_guesses.append(guess)
found = True
for letter in secret_word:
if letter not in good_guesses and letter != ' ':
found = False
if found:
print("You win!")
print("The secret word was {}".format(secret_word))
done = True
else:
bad_guesses.append(guess)
if len(bad_guesses) == 7:
draw(bad_guesses, good_guesses, secret_word)
print("You lost!")
print("The secret word was {}".format(secret_word))
done = True
if done:
play_again = input("Play again? Y/n ").lower()
if play_again != 'n':
return play(done=False)
else:
sys.exit()
def welcome():
start = input("Press enter/return to play, or type Q to quit.").lower()
if start.lower() == 'q':
print ("Game Over!")
sys.exit()
else:
return True
print("Welcome to letter Guess!")
done = False
while True:
clear()
welcome()
play(done)
something like this
Strikes: 0/7.

else:
sys.exit()
Turns into:
else:
sys.exit()
I just added more spaces :)
Good luck! ~alex
