Question

There is a problem which is requiring me to write a program which is a reversed Hangman. I give the word to the computer and it will guess the word. I am new to programming so it can not be really complicating.

should look like this.
CS&141 – Lab #5
Programming Projects – Page 372 – 2.
Write a reverse Hangman game in which the user thinks of a word and the computer tries to guess the letters in that word. The user tells the computer how many letters the word contains.
Limit your program to a maximum of 6 guesses. Use a random number generator to generate the guesses. Use the following code to generate your letter guesses randomly:
// picks a letter at random that we haven't yet guessed
public static char getGuess(String guesses) {
Random r = new Random();
char guess;
do {
guess = (char)('A' + r.nextInt(26));
} while (guesses.indexOf(guess) != -1);
return guess;
}
Your program should be stored in a file called ReverseHangman.java.
Log of execution (user input underlined)
This program plays a game of reverse hangman.
You think up a word and I'll try to guess
the letters.
How many letters are in your word? 2
