#include <iostream>
#include <string>
using namespace std;

int main()
{
int tttt;
cout<<"Enter max number of tries ";
cin>>tttt;
cout << "Enter the word for other player to guess" << endl;
  
string word;
cin>>word;
  
string copy = word;

string Underscore;
  
for(int i=0; i!=word.length(); i++){

if(word.at(i) == ' '){
Underscore += " ";
} else{
Underscore += "*";
}
}

  
string guess;
int wrong=0;
  
while(1){
if(wrong == tttt){
cout << "You Lose! The word was: " << word << endl;
break;
}

cout << Underscore << endl;

if(Underscore == word){
cout << "You win!" << endl;
break;
}

cout << "Guess a letter (You have " << tttt - wrong << " tries left)"<< endl;
cin>>guess;
  
if(guess.length() > 1){
if(guess == word){
cout << "That's right, you win!" << endl;
break;
} else{
cout << "wrong word " << endl;
wrong++;
}
} else if(copy.find(guess) != -1){
cout<<"right word so far"<<endl;
while(copy.find(guess) != -1){
Underscore.replace(copy.find(guess), 1, guess);
copy.replace(copy.find(guess), 1, "_");
}
} else{
cout << "wrong,try again" << endl;
wrong++;
