Introduction

---

About a year ago, I already created a website that is all about the game hangman (http://www.hangman.symbolwebdesign.nl). The target group for this project is for all ages, so the interface will be simple. It will choose a random word from a text file it read.

Interface

---

The interface of this project is fairly easy:

- The title "Hangman"
- An input box for the letter and a button next to it
- The word in dots
- A square that shows the hangman
- Space for some text beneath the image, that will show a win or loose message.

Programming

---

I wrote the game Hangman in Java, JavaScript and PHP. I used XHTML as markup language. (I also wrote the code in C as console and WinAPI)

As there are many difference in programming hangman in different languages, I decided to not write it step by step, but to add alot of comments within the code so that you can read it from there step by step.

Using this code

When using this code, I would suggest you read through the text I wrote above each code for each language:

• Java: http://www.hangman.symbolwebdesign.nl/sourcecode.php?lang=Java


• JavaScript: http://www.hangman.symbolwebdesign.nl/sourcecode.php?lang=JavaScript


• PHP: http://www.hangman.symbolwebdesign.nl/sourcecode.php?lang=PHP


• C (console): http://www.hangman.symbolwebdesign.nl/sourcecode.php?lang=C


• C (WinAPI): http://hangman.symbolwebdesign.nl/
