Crafting a Classic Hangman Game
Hangman is a classic word-guessing game where players aim to uncover a hidden word by suggesting letters within a limited number of attempts. The game progresses with each incorrect guess, drawing parts of a hangman figure, leading to a loss if the figure is completed before the word is fully guessed. In this project, participants will methodically build a digital version of Hangman. We will start by loading a word list from a file, then move on to develop functions for handling guesses, updating the game state, and managing the game's flow, culminating in a complete, playable game.Course

Why people choose Codefinity for their career
Kwizera Mugisha
The teaching methodology at Codefinity is excellent, and I particularly appreciate how it has prepared me to handle real-world coding problems. Currently, I am delving into Node.js and eagerly anticipate building full-stack projects that integrate all the knowledge I have gained.
Sherry Barnes-Fox
My first course was 4 hours, I did it in a few days, "nugget-style. The instructions are very clear and easy to understand. There is even a hint to help you get the answer, and if you still cannot get the answer, then you can display the answer. I love the learning style that is used, it engages me.
Bill Wagner
I have really liked the browser-based lessons that allow me to code within the lesson. The RUN button allows me to test the code I write before submitting for a grade.
Stephanie Chan
As I went through the first course of the Python track, I liked the way the course was lay out (in easy and digestible modules) with little exercises at the end of each concept.
Daniel Chinea
I have gained a lot of practical and logical thinking skills, along with patience for myself and confidence in myself that I can learn programming.
Steve Bruening
The learning was progressive and made it easy to follow along and make progress. I could feel my skills increasing and building on each other as the course went along.

I followed all the steps, but in the end I couln't play the game. So I had to as AI to help me, to correct my code, because the hints weren't enough help. Just one time (in one chapter)I could actually check my code. In the end there were several mistakes, which I could not have found with only the hints

The juptr nodebook is fragile and can easily break, landing you on a 404 error page. The help topics are inadequate and fail to address things like cells and how they operate. The help video to explain the editor skims lightly over the functionality. You have to experiment to figure out things lilke how to save your work and how to run the program once you're done.
