Hangman game using C programming

 Hangman game using C programming:

Program:

#include <stdio.h> #include <string.h> #include <ctype.h> #define MAX_WRONG_GUESSES 6 #define MAX_WORD_LENGTH 20 int main() { char word[MAX_WORD_LENGTH]; char guessed[MAX_WORD_LENGTH]; int numWrongGuesses = 0; int numCorrectGuesses = 0; int length; int i; char playAgain; do { printf("Enter the word to guess (up to %d characters): ", MAX_WORD_LENGTH - 1); scanf("%s", word); length = strlen(word); // Initialize guessed array with underscores for (i = 0; i < length; i++) { guessed[i] = '_'; } guessed[length] = '\0'; while (numWrongGuesses < MAX_WRONG_GUESSES && numCorrectGuesses < length) { printf("\nWord: %s\n", guessed); printf("Enter a letter: "); char guess; scanf(" %c", &guess); guess = tolower(guess); int found = 0; for (i = 0; i < length; i++) { if (word[i] == guess) { guessed[i] = guess; numCorrectGuesses++; found = 1; } } if (!found) { numWrongGuesses++; printf("Incorrect guess. You have %d guesses left.\n", MAX_WRONG_GUESSES - numWrongGuesses); } } if (numCorrectGuesses == length) { printf("\nCongratulations! You guessed the word: %s\n", word); } else { printf("\nSorry, you ran out of guesses. The word was: %s\n", word); } printf("Do you want to play again? (y/n): "); scanf(" %c", &playAgain); playAgain = tolower(playAgain); // Reset variables for the next game numWrongGuesses = 0; numCorrectGuesses = 0; } while (playAgain == 'y'); return 0; }

Word: g___

Enter a letter: a

Word: ga__

Enter a letter: m

Word: gam_
