Looking for help for hangman game

[alpine gate]

Post code and explain why you're stuck 🙂

[charred flame]

    while True:
        guess = input("Next guess:").upper()
        if guess in guessed_letters:
            print("You already tried this!")
        elif guess in word:
           print("You are correct")
           guessed_letter += letter

def guessed_letter(word):
    if letter = not_guessed




def display_word(word,guessed_letters):
    display = "" * len(word)



def choose_random_battle():

I cant get display = "" * len(word) to work

[alpine gate]

Well

An empty string times a number is still an empty string?

[charred flame]

Well true

but otherwise it comes back as an error

[alpine gate]

Why?

[charred flame]

im not sure

[alpine gate]

If you just put an underscore in instead of that empty string that'll work out

[charred flame]

no it doesnt tried both variants

if I put * it kinda goes through but nothing happens

display = "_" len(word)

e.g

comes back as invalid syntax

[alpine gate]

Where is the star?

lol

The star is the multiplication operator

[charred flame]

I done it it kinda works but not in the way i want it to

[alpine gate]

Why?

[charred flame]

Because it doesnt recognise the letter i input

it recognises blank statement instead

[charred flame]

I messed it up again

it no longer recognises even blank statement it simply prints none existend messages
