Object-Oriented Programming with Java, part I – Exercise 42

This program implements the remainder of a Hangman program that was created by someone else.

My Code

import hangman.Hangman;
import java.util.Scanner;

public class HangmanUserInteface {

    public static void main(String[] args) {
        Scanner reader = new Scanner(System.in);
        Hangman hangman = new Hangman();

        System.out.println("***********");
        System.out.println("* HANGMAN  *");
        System.out.println("***********");
        System.out.println("");
        printMenu();
        System.out.println("");

        // PROGRAM YOUR SOLUTION HERE
        while (hangman.gameOn()) {
            System.out.println("Type a command: ");
            String command = reader.nextLine();

            if (command.equals("quit")) {
                break;
            } else if (command.equals("status")) {
                hangman.printStatus();
            } else if (command.length() == 1) {
                hangman.guess(command);
            } else if (command.isEmpty()) {
                printMenu();
            }

            hangman.printMan();
            hangman.printWord();
            System.out.println("");

        }

        System.out.println("Thank you for playing!");
    }

    public static void printMenu() {
        System.out.println(" * menu *");
        System.out.println("quit   - quits the game");
        System.out.println("status  - prints the game status");
        System.out.println("a single letter uses the letter as a guess");
        System.out.println("an empty line prints this menu");
    }
}

Model Code

import hangman.Hangman;

import java.util.Scanner;

 

public class HangmanUserInteface {

 

    public static void main(String[] args) {

        Scanner reader = new Scanner(System.in);

        Hangman hangman = new Hangman();

 

        System.out.println("***********");

        System.out.println("* HANGMAN  *");

        System.out.println("***********");

        System.out.println("");

        printMenu();

        System.out.println("");

 

        // PROGRAM YOUR SOLUTION HERE

 

        while (hangman.gameOn()) {

            System.out.println("");

            System.out.println("Type a command: ");

            String command = reader.nextLine();

 

            if (command.equals("quit")) {

                break;

            } else if (command.equals("status")) {

                hangman.printStatus();

            } else if (command.length() == 1) {

                hangman.guess(command);

            } else if (command.isEmpty()) {

                printMenu();

            }

 

            hangman.printMan();

            hangman.printWord();

        }

 

        System.out.println("Thank you for playing!");

    }

 

    public static void printMenu() {

        System.out.println(" * menu *");

        System.out.println("quit   - quits the game");

        System.out.println("status  - prints the game status");

        System.out.println("a single letter uses the letter as a guess");

        System.out.println("an empty line prints this menu");

    }

}

Fairly straightforward.
