While loop is keep running, game not reaching to any conclusion-CodePudding

I wore code for hangman game, bur for some reason while loop continues and I need to force the programme to stop. please look into the code and explain me what is the probleme in it. Thanks

import random
word_list = ['apple', 'banana', 'mango', 'kiwi', 'grapes']
num_lives = 5
print(word_list)

choice = random.choice(word_list)
print(choice)

display=[]

for i in range (len(choice)): 
    display  = '_'

print(display)

game_over=False

while not game_over:    
    gussed_letter=input("Gusse a letter").lower()

    for position in range(len(choice)):
        letter = choice[position]
        if letter == gussed_letter:
            display[position] = gussed_letter
    print(display)

if gussed_letter not in choice:
    num_lives -=1

    if num_lives == 0:
        game_over = True
        print('You died, Game over!')
if '_' not in display:
    game_over = True
    print('You have won the game')

I tried VS code for python hangman game, game is not stopping and loop continues.

CodePudding user response：

if gussed_letter not in choice:
    num_lives -=1
if num_lives == 0:
    game_over = True
    print('You died, Game over!')
if '_' not in display:
    game_over = True
    print('You have won the game')```

It does not work because you do not put them in the while loop.

here,your guessed_letter not in choice is outside while loop bring it inside loop import random

word_list = ['apple', 'banana', 'mango', 'kiwi', 'grapes'] num_lives = 5 print(word_list)

choice = random.choice(word_list) print(choice)

display = []

for i in range(len(choice)): display = '_'

print(display)

game_over = False

while not game_over: guessed_letter = input("Guess a letter: ").lower()

for position in range(len(choice)):
    letter = choice[position]
    if letter == guessed_letter:
        display[position] = guessed_letter

print(display)

if guessed_letter not in choice:
    num_lives -= 1

    if num_lives == 0:
        game_over = True
        print('You died, Game over!')

if '_' not in display:
    game_over = True
    print('You have won the game')
