Bugs

Solved Bugs

#	Bug	How I solved the issue	Screenshots
1	Testing print statement would not print values.	Reviewed the code & realised I left out the argument when calling the function.	n/a
2	Created infinte loop while creating gameplay(). Conditions not indented properly.	I indented the conditions, and the code ran as expected.
3	Spelling error when outlining if statement within while loop of gameplay().	The original variable spelling was incorrect, as opposed to the spelling of 'alphabet' in the if statement.
4	f-string not working as expected.	Forgot to insert "f" before string.
5	if/else statement within gameplay() not working correctly. The game continues to play even after 9 guesses have been attempted.	Was corrected when bug #4 was also fixed.

• Once all of the solutions were carried out, I reviewed each issue to ensure all corrections were applied & no further issues were occurring.

Known Bugs

#	Bug	Screenshots
1	I had adjusted the spacing in run.py on line 50 for the variable current_word_list to comply with the linter. However, the program would not run correctly otherwise & I did not have time to come up with an alternative. Instead, I returned it to the way it was before.
