Create A Very Basic Hangman Type Of Game
Oct 12, 2014
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 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?
Java Code: import java.awt.Color;
import java.awt.FlowLayout;
import java.awt.Container;
import java.awt.event.ActionListener;
import java.awt.event.ActionEvent;
import javax.swing.JFrame;
import javax.swing.JButton;
[code]....

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.

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 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.
Like for ex. P????

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
[Code] .....

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;
[Code] ....

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){
}

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;

I started programming some time ago and i recently finished a game i've been programming in Java just to get used to the code. The game is a simple text-based RPG where almost everything is random except the character movement.
I've been thinking about learning HTML and CSS because i'm really interested in building webpages. I have no one to ask this question so here i am.
Is there a way to implement my game in a webpage?
I imagine a black window exactly like a classic OS terminal where the text is streamed and the user can play the game with keyboard inputs. I made the game with 5 different classes, i used Eclipse and i have my project there. Should i use a service like Github to share works like this one?

I am trying to create a basic graphical user interface for sequence translation (including a JTextField for the description of a sequence and status of function button pressed e.g. “simple” translation and input and output TextFields). This involves a number of different class files. I cannot get my user interface to do what I want and I think I have problems with my "actionPerformed" method. How the code should be linked together?
public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent event) {
try {
// Get the description, content and result
String d = tool.getDescription();
String input = tool.getInputText();
Stringr = translation.getResult();

So I'm fairly new to java and have been learning game development. I've come across this error message on my StartingClass.java coding. Here is the Coding
@Override
public void start() {
bg1 = new Background(0,0); // This line is giving me the error!!!!!!!!!!!
bg2 = new Background(2160, 0);
hb = new Heliboy(340, 360);
hb2 = new Heliboy(700, 360);
robot = new Robot();
Thread thread = new Thread(this);
thread.start();
The error reads "No enclosing instance of type BackGround is accessible. Must qualify the allocation with an enclosing instance of type BackGround (e.g. x.new A() where x is an instance of BackGround)." Now I have seven classes in my in my games src folder and none of them but the StartingClass.java has the error. Once again I'm fairly new to java and have not benn able to fix it.
These are the classes{
BackGround.java
Enemy.java
Heliboy.java
package-info.java
Projectile.java
Robot.java
StartingClass.java ( errors in this class )
}

I am simulating a game. This involves creating two Player objects(either HumanPlayer or ComputerPlayer), a TheBoard object, a TheGame object and a TheGameManager object. In the TheGameManager, i am trying to get it so that i can save the two Player objects, the TheBoard object and the TheGame object in current use at some point in the game and then load them later at some point. However, after debugged, i have found that it doesnt like the writeObject() method and skips and sends an exception up.
My TheGameManager class has the following fields:
public class TheGameManager implements GameManager {
private Player player1;
private Player player2;
private TheBoard currentBoard;
private TheGame currentGame;
//private String[] args;
private int iterations = 1;

Essentially, the code I want is:
public void randomCreate(ParentObject obj){
int x = random(0-4); //pseudo
int y = random(0-4); //pseudo
create new ParentObj(x,y);
}
ParentObject is actually abstract, so you would only ever pass one of its children objects to it, and a child object of that type would be created. It seems like there should be a way to pass a type, rather than an object, and then create an instance later down, but I don't know if that is actually possible, or if it is poor programming style.

So I'm beginning to learn java with the book HeadFirst Java. The books says that all a tester class does is create objects of a new type and then use the dot operator...
I don't really understand what a tester class is and what it does ? and what is the Dot operator and how does it work ?

So I'd like to make like a library of tiles, and it isn't too big, which I could just call using a method, and I would specificy what information I need to get, and it would return that information.
For example, a small section of the tiles library is grass_tile, I call this library and specify what I need, and in this case let's say I need the width, or can the character enter it from north? or can the character just stand on it? So it's like a library or array, with sections of it being named by tiles, and by mentioning these tiles I can information about them.
gTile("grass","walkon") will return true, first because I specifiy grass, and yes the character can walk on grass, so it returns a boolean value of true.
gTile("stone","width") will return 16, first because I specify stone, and the stone's png image size is 16.
What I'm asking is not for how to work out if the character can walk on the tile, or read the width of a tile, but can I create like a library from which I can obtain information by giving the name of the tile, and then telling it what info I need.
If up key pressed && gTile((yTILE + 1).name(),"walkon") == true then moveChar("up")

For class, we need to create a word game using classes and objects.
The game is played in rounds. The player is presented with a word that is missing letters. The player has to fill in the missing spaces with their letter guesses. The words presented are chosen with a random number generator which has been provided for us. At the end of the game, the player is shown their score.
In steps, I have to:
-Welcome the player.
-Present the puzzle.
-Allow the player to fill in the blanks.
-Have the program check responses for correct/incorrect input.
-End the game if they have three misses, or continue if they complete the puzzle.
Now, to start, I have a class for the number generator, a class to store the array of 25 words, and a class for the game itself.

I am trying to create the Breakout game and cannot figure how to get the paddle to move and make constraints to bricks disappear when the ball hits them but not the paddle. I tried this:
public void keyPressed(KeyEvent press)
{
obj = paddle;
int key = press.getKeyCode();
if(key == KeyEvent.VK_LEFT)
{
while(true)
{
paddle.move();
}
}
}
but I get an error for the "paddle.move();". Below is the entire code that I have gotten so far:
import acm.program.GraphicsProgram;

I am attempting to create a 2d game that has a realistic space simulation. The map is supposed to be set so that you are looking from the top down. The problem I am having exists in my interaction between the sun and a planet. Simply put, the planet will only move in a single diagonal direction without ever changing direction. The formulas I am using are F=(G*M1*M2)/D^2 and A=F/M. The code below is simplified.
(inside planet Class)
double x;
double y;
double mass;
double xForce;
double yForce;
double xAccel;
double yAccel;
[Code] ....
Things I have already tried:
1. Setting G to negative
2. changing the order of the subtraction in determining D
3. some weird pythagorean theorem thing someone suggested

import java.util.Random;
import android.app.Activity;
