Question

Lab 16 Secret Word Game! objective: Write a class that will be used by a program driver to play a word guessing game. This game works similar to, "Hangman" where the player only has 5 tries to guess the word. They enter in a letter at a time and those letters are revealed in the word. Unlike hangman each turn counts and not just every time they pick a letter that's not in the word. First download the driver, and place it into the source folder (src) of your project. Next create a class called SecretWord This class has three instance variables o secretWord: the word the user has to guess o hintWord: the word with the guess letters revealed o numberOfTurns: keeps track of the number of guesses This class only requires a default constructor o You set the secret word o Number of turns to a default value of 0 The hint word is constructed using asterisk for every letter that's in the secret word Accessors for every instance variable Mutators for every instance variable o CHECK FOR VALID VALUES! Other methods o guess Letter: This method returns nothing and requires a single character parameter. The whenever the letter is found in the secret word, then that letter replaces that a in the hint word. HINT: The string method toCharArray may be very useful.

Explanation / Answer

public class SecretWord {
   private String secretWord;
   private StringBuilder hintWord;
   private int numOfTurn;
  
   public SecretWord(){
       numOfTurn = 0;
   }
   public void guessLetter(char ch){
       for(int i=0;i<secretWord.length();i++){
           if(secretWord.charAt(i)==ch){
               hintWord.setCharAt(i, secretWord.charAt(i));
           }
       }
   }
   public String getSecretWord() {
       return secretWord;
   }
   public void setSecretWord(String secretWord) {
       this.secretWord = secretWord;
       this.hintWord = new StringBuilder(secretWord);
       for(int i=0;i<secretWord.length();i++){
           hintWord.setCharAt(i, '*');
       }
   }
   public StringBuilder getHintWord() {
       return hintWord;
   }
   public void setHintWord(StringBuilder hintWord) {
       this.hintWord = hintWord;
   }
   public int getNumOfTurn() {
       return numOfTurn;
   }
   public void setNumOfTurn(int numOfTurn) {
       this.numOfTurn = numOfTurn;
   }

}
