words.txt contains about 81,000 words, one per line. You will use it for this assignment as a lexicon of English words.
Write a Python program that chooses a word of a specified length at random from the lexicon and displays it to the user in a random, scrambled order. Then let the user guess words of varying lengths that can be formed using the letters of the word and the same number of occurrences or less as they appear in the word. After every guess, respond to the user whether the guess was correct, and add it to the list of words that have been guessed so far. Print results grouped by length of words and alphabetized within each group.
Here is a sample execution:
$ python3 wordgame.py
Enter the range of word lengths (low,high):3,6
renbur:
['---','---','---','---','---','---','---','---','---']
['----','----','----','----']
['-----']
['------']
Enter a guess: bur
Correct!
urnrbe:
['---','---', 'bur', '---','---','---','---','---','---']
['----','----','----','----']
['-----']
['------']
Enter a guess: burr
Correct!
ubenrr:
['---','---', 'bur', '---','---','---','---','---','---']
['----', 'burr', '----','----']
['-----']
['------']
Enter a guess: run
Correct!
rebnur:
['---','---', 'bur', '---','---','---','---', 'run', '---']
['----', 'burr', '----','----']
['-----']
['------']
Enter a guess: rune
Correct!
brurne:
['---','---', 'bur', '---','---','---','---', 'run', '---']
['----', 'burr', '----', 'rune']
['-----']
['------']
Enter a guess: foo
Sorry. Try again
renrub:
['---','---', 'bur', '---','---','---','---', 'run', '---']
['----', 'burr', '----', 'rune']
['-----']
['------']
Enter a guess: burner
Correct!
nrrebu:
['---','---', 'bur', '---','---','---','---', 'run', '---']
['----', 'burr', '----', 'rune']
['-----']
['burner']
Enter a guess: burn
Correct!
enurrb:
['---','---', 'bur', '---','---','---','---', 'run', '---']
['burn', 'burr', '----', 'rune']
['-----']
['burner']
Enter a guess: urn
Correct!
nebrur:
['---','---', 'bur', '---','---','---','---', 'run', 'urn']
['burn', 'burr', '----', 'rune']
['-----']
['burner']
Enter a guess: q
['brr', 'bun', 'bur', 'err', 'nub', 'rub', 'rue', 'run', 'urn', 'burn', 'burr', 'rube', 'rune', 'rerun', 'burner']
Note that you first prompt the user for the range of word lengths to consider. The largest length requested (6 in this case) determines the length of the word that you will choose randomly from the lexicon (burner here). Note also that you shuffle the word on each iteration. Entering the string q quits the program. Display each list of same-length words guessed in alphabetical order.
Print all words at the end of the game, as shown above.
If there are no words of a particular length, just ignore them altogether (note no words of length 5 below in seaway with a length range of 4 through 6):
esaywa:
['away','----', 'ayes', 'easy', 'sway', 'ways', 'yaws', 'yeas', 'yews']
['------']
You may find itertools.groupby, random.choice, and random.shuffle helpful.wordgame.py >...
import collections
import itertools
import random
low =3
high =6
with open("words.txt") as f:
words =[line.rstrip () for line in f if low (len(line)-1) high]
#get a random word
word = random. choice( for w in words if len(w)== high
