This project is part of The Odin Project: Mastermind, where I implement a command-line version of the classic Mastermind game where players have 12 turns to guess a secret code created by the computer. Players can choose to guess the computer's code or create their own secret code for the computer to guess.
You can play the Mastermind game online by accessing the following link: Play Mastermind on Replit
- Two Roles: Players can either be the code creator or the guesser.
- Random Code Generation: The computer randomly selects a secret code consisting of colors.
- Feedback System: The game provides feedback on the accuracy of the guesses each turn.
- Intelligent Computer Guessing: If the player creates a secret code, the computer can use a strategy to make informed guesses based on previous attempts.
- The game starts by allowing the player to choose their role.
- If the player is the code creator, they select a code consisting of digits
1-6. - The computer makes guesses and receives feedback on how close its guesses are.
- Players can make up to 12 guesses to find the correct code.
This project demonstrates:
- Understanding of object-oriented programming principles.
- Implementation of game logic and algorithms.
- User input handling and random number generation.
- Design patterns for creating interactive command-line applications.
