# Hangman game implementation
"""
Guess a word.
The word to guess is represented by a row of dashes, representing
each letter of the word.

Write a programm to guess a word by the user.

for example
word = "anaconda"
body_part = ["Hair", "Eyes", "Arm", "Shoulder", "Stomach", "Leg"]

- Take a input from user in lower alphabet
- Check the alphabet with your word if match then show the match string
  and remaining dash. if guess alphabet is a then show string  a_a____a
- If you give 6 wrong input then you loose
- On each wrong guess remove one body part from body part list
- If you guess right word then you win
Try your luck ** ^_^ **"""
