I'm confused. The error message you describe doesn't
appear to match any line in your code.
Please provide the full error printout not just a single line.
Meanwhile some comments...
global line
global index;
global is not doing anything here, it is only effective inside a
function.
Try not to use global variables unless you have to. Specifically only
for data that's shared between functions, and even then it's usually
better practice to pass the values into the functions as arghuments.
guessed = ["-"];
count = 0;
wrong = 0;
def guess(letter):
global guessed
if (letter in line):
You don't need the parens, they don't do any harm,
but they aren't needed.
index = line.index(letter);
print guessed;
# This is the line that gives me the error don't know why?
guessed[index] = " " + (letter); ,TypeError: 'str' object does not
support item assignment
guessed[index] = (letter);
Again, you don't need the parens...
And I suspect you really want to use append() here rather
than assigning to guessed[index].
print ' '.join(guessed)
else:
global wrong;
wrong += 1;
def draw(number):...
def doit():
global count
while(wrong != 7):
a_letter = raw_input("Pick a letter --> ")
print
guess(a_letter);
draw(wrong);
print
count += 1
def initArray():
global guessed
print line
guessed = guessed[0] * (len(line)-1)
print "this is new list " + guessed;
If you use the append() method you don't need this.
while 1:
line = file.readline();
if (len(line) >= 5):
initArray()
doit();
break
if not line: break
file.close()
