2,533 PointsUnderstanding the concept of how these letters are getting printed.
Hi All,
I understand the challenge and completed it successfully, however, I want to better understand how this line of code works. What it does is replace the '_' with the actual letter of the word. I just don't know how the code knows how to do this, hopefully someone can enlighten me!
while len(bad) < 7 and len(good) != len(list((secret))):
for letter in secret:
if letter in good:
print(letter, end='')
else:
print('_',end='')
print('')
print('Stikes: {}/7'.format(len(bad)))
print('')

2,533 PointsActually, I think I am getting it after review. It is a for loop. And for every letter that is in the secret word, replace it with the actual letter, if no letters are in good, replace it with '_'. Is that the concept?
