Bug: empty list: Fixed
line 27 throws an exception, checking list(word) is empty fixes the problem
The comment appears really clumsy. My first comment in Active State, Sorry for that. This is more clear http://pastie.org/710896
This is what I got when I try to run this code:
This is how the game works... The game will give you a scrambled word. Then you 'guess' the original.
A couple of notes.
1: all words are never plural. 2: c() gives you the first letter. 3: s() surrenders. This also gives you the answer.
Sorry, no more words left!
