Replacing Underscores In Array Implementation Of Hangman Game
Jun 5, 2014
For an array implementation of a Hangman game I have created an array to hold the game board progress. It is initialized as "_ _ _ " where the underscores represent the number of letter in the word to be guessed. I have written the following method to replace underscores with a correct guess. It is functioning correctly in that it is replacing the underscore with a correct character guess, but it is only replacing the first time this letter appears in the word. I.e. for "greed" guessing "e" would only replace the first e: _ _ e _ _how I may be able to fix this issue.
// Updates gameboard from "_" to current guess if guess is correct
if (isCorrectGuess(move)==true){
if(inWinningState()==false){
guessProgress[charLocation] = guess;}
return true;}
I am trying to create a Hangman game with a gui. i already have buttons for the letters, each with its own action listener. I'm having difficulties creating the gallows and man.
I have a class called guiTest, which contains all of the letters. This is essentially what i have. Can I add the image to this class, or do I need to create a new class that extends JFrame?
You have to create a very basic hangman type of game. Open Notepad and create a list of at least ten words in a text file. Save the file as a .txt file and use it to read words for the game. In this game you do not have to show pictures but you do need to keep track of the amount of times that the user has guessed wrong. When the game starts, show the amount of characters in the word represented as dashes and ask the user to type in a letter. if the user guesses correctly show the word again with the correct letter filled in the correct positions(s) and if the user correctly guessed the word, show a message. If the user guesses wrong, keep track of the body parts that needs to be reduced with every wrong guess and inform the user as well, also show a message.
I'm struggling with reading the file, showing the amount of parts left and asking the user to play again. Here is the code:
package hangman;
/** * * @author */ import java.nio.*; import java.io.*; import java.util.*; public class HangMan {
I wrote a program that would play a game of Hangman. It plays the game but it keeps on bringing up a exception error. This is my class code
import java.util.ArrayList; class Assignment2Q4 { private final ArrayList<Character> guessList = new ArrayList<>(); private final char[] charArray; private final String secretWord; private int guesses;
[Code] ....
This is the output that is given:
Enter the secret word: pizza Guess a letter: d ????? Guess a letter:
[Code] .....
Also when I guess the first letter of the word correctly it stops the program without going further on with the guessing.
I am creating a hangman code. So the game i am creating is 2 player, first player enters the word and second player guesses. i made the code but i don't know how to restrict the first player from adding random characters into the secret word because for my project the word can only contain letters. so i need making the code so the player 1 can only enter letters.
My code is below:
/** * Auto Generated Java Class. */ import java.util.Scanner; public class Hangman { public static void main(String[] args) { Scanner input= new Scanner(System.in); String player1,player2; int wrongguessamount = 0; //keeps the count of the amount of wrong guesses int correctguessamount = 0; //keeps count of the amount of correct guesses int maxincorrect=6;//makes sure the user cant guess more than 6 times
I created a simple Hangman game. It functions correctly, the only issue is when the file contains a phrase (2 or more words), spaces are not displayed when the program is run. For example, if the phrase was Java Programming Forums.
It would appear as _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _.
I want there to be spaces in between the words. How could I fix this? What would I need to add to my code?
import java.util.Scanner; import java.io.*; public class hangman{ public static void main (String[] args) throws FileNotFoundException{ Scanner kb = new Scanner(System.in); String guess; String guesses = ""; int wrongGuess = 8;
My assignment is to create a hangman game. One of my first difficulties with it is how to scan the string for an input supplied by the user.
Here is my method:
//Guesses that character c is in the secret word. //Updates all instance variables accordingly, //and returns true if c is present in the secret word. public boolean guessCharacter(char c){ }
The game runs fine, however I have to include how many times each letter that is guessed occurs within the word. For example, if the guess is e, the program should print out: The character e occurs in 3 positions. How would I go about doing this??
/* * A program that plays simple word guessing game. In this game the user provides a list of words to the program. * The program randomly selects one of the words to be guessed from this list. * The player then guesses letters in an attempt to figure out what the hidden word might be. * The number of guesses that the user takes are tracked and reported at the end of the game. */
I'm having some problems with the graphics of my hangman game. The graphic that's supposed to show up on the first guess (the hangman pole) doesn't show up until guess number 2. And on the eighth guess, no graphics show up (I just get a blank frame).
import java.awt.*; import javax.swing.*; public class HangmanFigure extends JPanel { private int guesses; private Image background; public HangmanFigure() { super();
Is there a better way to scan a character array for digits and replace any number in the array with another character ("*") in this case? The array is the address, " 1234 Runner Road " .
how to replace the values in my array with the results of my function factorial.
public static void main(String[] args) { //this is my main function: int[] array = {5,4,3,2,1}; int i = 0; System.out.print("results: "); for (i = 0; i < array.length; i++){ System.out.print(factorial(array[i]));
[code]....
So, what I'm trying to do is change the contents of the array "array" into their factorial value. So, they should be replaced with {120,24,6,2,1}. then add those using linear sum but that's a different story.
I have a file which contains certain positions ([a][b]) that require to be placed in a certain multi-dimensional array. For example I might have an array String[][] that is a size of 6x6 but only have values in positions [2][1] and [3][2]. Because it is important for me to maintain the given array size and also do certain actions with the given positions I cannot modify the size. In addition I need to count the surrounding neighbors each element has (including elements that are null). However because some of my further code cant process with null elements I need to remove all null elements with " " (blank).
I am not sure how this is done or if it's even possible. If it is not possible how can I do something as close as possible to my needs?
So I have this stack. I'm writing out all the operations and what not but I'm having trouble bypassing this "generic array creation" problem. I'm meant to be creating an array based implementation of a stack and from my research from google and my various attempts at things, I have not found a solution that works.
In addition; I have all the operations written that I need except for one final one. And that is clear(). clear() is meant to empty the array, essentially it is a popAll() method. Then all I need to do is set up so I can print out the arrays and I should be able to handle everything else.
StackInterface:
/** An interface for the ADT stack. */ public interface StackInterface<T> { /** Adds a new entry to the top of this stack. @param newEntry an object to be added to the stack */ public void push(T newEntry);
/** Removes and returns this stackÕs top entry. @return either the object at the top of the stack or, if the stack is empty before the operation, null */ public T pop();
I know a lot of people taking beginning java courses have posted questions about creating a tic tac toe game, but here is another one. Below is my code. I can't seem to get the X's and O's to show up on the board or to determine a winner.
import java.util.*; public class Trial3 { public static char turn; public static int count; public static void main(String[]args) { Scanner input=new Scanner(System.in); char[][]b=new char[3][3]; boolean flag=false; count=0;
so my task is to write a code which would ask user to input the year as integer and first three letters of the month with first being an upper case letter. Than the program would determine the number of days for given year and month.
Currently I have a brain crash on how to check, if the user has provided the month with first character being upper Case. If not, than the program would automatically correct the character. Problem starts at line 17.
import java.util.Scanner;
public class DaysOfMonth4_17 { public static void main (String[] args) { //Initiate scanner Scanner input = new Scanner (System.in); //Ask for year input and use is as INT System.out.println("Enter the year");
I'm currently trying to build a DAO based application where you use a text file as a data source. It have worked out well until I tried to delete lines from the file.
I've managed to fill out the temp file with everything except the line I wanted to remove, but when I try to replace the original file with the temp file it won't work. It casts the error: "temp.txt -> databilar.txt".
I've also tried to use the renameTo method without any success...
So I have that traditional memory game homework assignment and for some reason I can't figure out how to put the codes in order. I can't figure out the arrangement to make it work. So far I have
import java.util.Random; import java.util.Scanner; public class MemoryGame {
With the code below, I am trying to replace all regex matches for visa cards within a given text file.
My first test was with a text "new3.txt" exclusively containing the visa test card 4111111111111111. My objective was to replace the card with "xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx". This was successful.
However, when modifying the text file to include other characters and text before and after (ex: " qwerty 4111111111111111 adsf zxcv"), it gives mixed results. Although it successfully validates the match, it replaces the whole text in the file, rather than replacing solely the match.
When trying this search and replace with words (rather than a regex match), it does not have this behavior. What am I missing?
import java.io.*; import java.util.regex.*; public class BTest { //VISA Test private final static String PATTERN = "(?s).*4[0-9]{12}(?:[0-9]{3})?.*"; public static void main(String args[]) { try
public class Puppy{ int puppyAge; public Puppy(String name){ // This constructor has one parameter, name. System.out.println("Passed Name is :" + name ); } public void setAge( int age ){ puppyAge = age;
[Code] ....
How do I put 3 values of the each variable without replacing the last inputted one?
Like when I input "Tommy" and input another name "Gerald", "Tommy" won't be replaced by "Gerald" when I input again.
Now the problem here is it replaces all the occurrence of abc in the string value and I get the below output as :
value=""/xyz_12_1/xyz234/xyz/filename.txt";
However my requirement is only in the case the value exactly matches with source the replacement shd happen. I am expecting the output like this :
String value ="/abc_12_1/abc234/xyz/filename.txt";
Also the above code is in a function which will be called multiple times and the values will keep on changing. However the target and source will remain the same always.
So I am trying to make my hangman program to show graphics. Here is what I have so far. How do I make my variables in here into a graphics program?
import java.util.Scanner; import java.awt.*; import javax.swing.*; public class Hangman2 extends JFrame { public static void main(String args[]) { Scanner sc = new Scanner (System.in); Hangman2 gp = new Hangman2();
