I have a question with regards to the helper method I created. I can not figure out a way to remove the helper method and just implement it into the main method.
Below is the code I am working on:
import java.util.Scanner;
public class random {
private static final boolean testingMode = true;
private String updateString(String oldString, int index, char newChar) {
String newString = "";
for (int i = 0; i < oldString.length(); i++) {
if (i == index) {
newString = newString + newChar;
} else {
newString = newString + oldString.charAt(i);
}
}
return newString;
}
public static void main(String[] args) {
random hangman2 = new random();
int guesses = 2;
int totalScore = 0;
int roundScore = 0;
Scanner scanner = new Scanner(System.in);
char playPrompt = ' ';
while (playPrompt != 'n') {
String randomWord = RandomWord.newWord();
String puzzleWord = "";
for (int i = 0; i < randomWord.length(); i++) {
puzzleWord = puzzleWord + "-";
}
System.out.print("The word is: " + puzzleWord);
System.out.print("n");
if (random.testingMode) {
System.out.println("The secret word is: " + randomWord);
}
int spaces = 0;
while (spaces == 0 || spaces > randomWord.length()) {
System.out.println("Enter the number of spaces allowed");
spaces = scanner.nextInt();
if (spaces == 0 || spaces > randomWord.length()) {
System.out.println("Invalid input. Try again.");
}
}
String updatedPuzzleWord = puzzleWord;
while (guesses != 0) {
boolean isSpacesValid;
String checkSpaces = "";
char guessedLetter = ' ';
boolean inputIteration = false;
boolean isGuessInWord = false;
while (!inputIteration) {
int spacesCount = 0;
System.out.println("Please enter the letter you want to guess: ");
guessedLetter = scanner.next().charAt(0);
System.out.println("Please enter spaces you want to check (separated by spaces):");
scanner.nextLine();
checkSpaces = scanner.nextLine();
checkSpaces = checkSpaces.replaceAll("\s", "");
for (int i = 0; i < checkSpaces.length(); i++) {
if (Character.isDigit(checkSpaces.charAt(i))) {
spacesCount = spacesCount + 1;
}
}
if (spacesCount == spaces) {
isSpacesValid = true;
} else {
isSpacesValid = false;
}
if (Character.isLetter(guessedLetter) && isSpacesValid) {
inputIteration = true;
} else {
System.out.println("Your input is not valid. Try again.");
System.out.println("Guesses Remaining: " + guesses);
inputIteration = false;
}
}
for (int i = 0; i < checkSpaces.length(); i++) {
int index = Character.getNumericValue(checkSpaces.charAt(i));
if (randomWord.charAt(index) == guessedLetter) {
updatedPuzzleWord = hangman2.updateString(updatedPuzzleWord, index, guessedLetter);
isGuessInWord = true;
}
}
if (updatedPuzzleWord.trim().equals(randomWord)) {
System.out.println("You have guessed the word! Congratulations");
roundScore = (guesses * 10) / spaces;
totalScore = totalScore + roundScore;
System.out.println("Score for this round: " + roundScore);
System.out.println("Total Score: " + totalScore);
break;
}
if (isGuessInWord) {
System.out.println("Your Guess is in the word!");
System.out.println("The Updated Word is: " + updatedPuzzleWord);
System.out.println("Guesses Remaining: " + guesses);
} else {
guesses = guesses - 1;
System.out.println("Your letter was not found in the spaces you provided.");
System.out.println("Guesses Remaining: " + guesses);
}
}
if (guesses == 0) {
System.out.println("You have failed to guess the word... :(");
roundScore = 0;
totalScore = totalScore + roundScore;
System.out.println("Score for this round: " + roundScore);
System.out.println("Total Score: " + totalScore);
}
System.out.println("Would you like to play again? Yes(y) No(n)");
playPrompt = scanner.next().charAt(0);
}
}
}
