Question

Create a guessing game called "Does It Have Legs?", in which you think of an animal and the computer tries to guess what it is. The game continually becomes "smarter" as you play because you teach it how to become more specific with its questions. For example, a typical game session might proceed as follows:

Computer: Does the animal you are thinking of have legs?

Player: Yes

Computer: Is it a dog?

Player: Yes

Computer: Yay! I win. Do you want to play again?

Player: Yes

Computer: Does the animal you are thinking of have legs?

Player: Yes

Computer: Is it a dog?

Player: No

Computer: I give up. What was your animal?

Player: Horse

Computer: Type a question for which the answer is Yes for Dog but No for Horse.

Player: Does it live in the house?

Computer: Do you want to play again?

Player: Yes
