12.2.1. Code Breakers#

Introduction#

Create the game “Code Breakers”, which is a guessing game based on the game Mastermind created in the $1970$s. In this game, a random code will be generated by the computer which is between $4$ and $6$ characters long and only contains the digits $0$ through $5$ (inclusive). Similarly to Wordle, the player attempts to guess the hidden code and is given clues about how close to the correct code they are. After each guess, the program informs the player how many of the digits were of the correct value in the correct location, and how many digits were of the correct value but were in the wrong location. The game ends with a victory message if the player guesses the correct code within $10$ guesses. Otherwise, the game ends with a defeat message.

At the start of your program, the player is presented some introductory text followed by a main menu from which they can choose between; $1$. Rules to view the rules, $2$. New Game to start a new game, $3$. Load Game to load a saved game, or $4$. Quit to exit the program. If the player enters an invalid choice, the program displays an appropriate error message and lets the player try again until a valid selection is made.

Note

Other than the function generate_solution described below, you are free to design your program however you like. You may use object-oriented programming techniques but are not required to do so.

Sample Output#

Use the values in Table 12.1 below to test your program.

They seemed to have forgotten their favorite COMP 15200-C textbook in CBOB building. However, CBOB has recently added a new feature to thier doors... A PASWORD LOCK! OH NO! There's more... IU is trying to steal the sacred COMP 15200-C textbook. You need to guess the password before they find the textbook and return it Timmy!

Rules: -------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1. You get 10 guesses to break the lock.

2. Guess the correct code to win the game.

3. Codes can be either 4, 5, or 6 digits in length.

4. Codes can only contain digits 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5.

5. Clues for each guess are given by a number of red and white pins.

5-a. The number of red pins in the R column indicates the number of digits in the correct location. 5-b. The number of white pins in the W column indicates the number of digits in the code, but in the wrong location. 5-c. Each digit of the solution code or guess is only counted once in the red or white pins.

2: New Game#

After the player chooses to start a new game, the program must call a function to produce the game’s solution code named generate_solution. This function takes two arguments, the code’s minimum length, and its maximum length, and returns the solution code as a string. Even though the game will only need codes with lengths of $4$, $5$, or $6$ digits, this function is able to generate codes of any length within the bounds of its arguments. Both the length of the solution code, and the digits it contains ($0$, $1$, $2$, $3$, $4$, and/or $5$) are determined at random. No other portion of your program will involve random chance.

Once the new solution code is generated, the player is given up to 10 chances to guess the code. Before each guess, the game board, which tracks the status of the game, should be displayed as shown in the examples below. The top row of the board is for the solution. It is initially disguised as $6$ o’s regardless of the solution’s length, and is revealed only when the game is complete. The left side of the board tracks the player’s guesses. It has space for guesses of up to 6 digits, and its rows are filled from the bottom up. Empty spaces on the board are represented with the letter o. The right side of the board has columns labeled R and W. These are used to provide clues for each guess according to rules that will be explained shortly.

Beneath the game board, the player is prompted to enter their next guess. The player may enter either q to quit the game, s to save and quit, or enter a valid guess of $4$ to $6$ characters containing only the digits $0$ through $5$. Invalid guesses are not accepted and do not count. If the player enters a guess that is the wrong length, or contains invalid characters, they are prompted to try again.

Sample Output#

Use the values in Table 12.3 below to test your program.

Table 12.3 Test Cases#

Clues#

After the player inputs a valid guess, a clue is displayed on the right side of the game board as a number of red pins (the R column), and a number of white pins (the W column). The number of red pins indicates how many digits in the guess are in the correct position and have the correct value. The number of white pins indicates how many digits in the guess are in the solution code, but are not in the correct position. Each digit of the solution code or guess can only be counted once in the red or white pins.

For example, given the solution code $550022$ and the guess $153455$, the correct clue is $1$ red pin and $1$ white pin. The matching $5$s in the $2$nd position earn the red pin. Since only one other $5$ remains in the code, only one white pin is assigned for the two $5$s at the end of the guess. Similarly, if the code contains more of a value than the guess, only as many of that value as are in the guess can contribute to the pin count. For example in the case of code $550033$ and guess $24311$ the $3$ in the guess only earns one white pin even though the solution code contains two $3$s.

Ending The Game#

The game ends when the player makes a correct guess or after their 10th incorrect guess. In either case the game board is displayed one more time with the solution code revealed in the top row. The game will also end if the player enters q to quit or s to save and quit instead of a guess. After the game ends, the player is returned to the main menu.

Saving#

When the player enters s to save the game, the program displays a save game menu. This menu allows the player to choose one of three save slots in which to save the game. Each slot displays the name, date, and time of the last save to that slot. If a slot has never been used, it displays empty. The player selects a save slot by its number ($1$, $2$, or $3$). If the player enters c the save is cancelled, they are returned to the active game. If the player enters an invalid choice, they are prompted to try again. After selecting a valid save slot, the player is prompted to enter their name. Names containing any characters other than letters, numbers, and spaces are rejected, and the player is prompted to try again. Once a valid name is entered, the game state is saved such that saved games are persistent between program runs.

Hint

The date and time can be captured using Python’s datetime module. For example: datetime.datetime.now().isoformat(timespec="seconds")

Typing c in this menu takes the player back to the main menu. Other entries besides 1, 2, and 3 result in an error message and the player is prompted to choose again. If the player chooses an empty slot, they are informed and prompted to try again. Once a valid save slot is selected, the game is loaded, displaying the game board as it appeared when saved. This game resumes with the same solution code and all previous guesses and clues. Note that a new solution must NOT be generated when a game is loaded.
