WEBVTT 0 00:00.590 --> 00:06.950 Now that you've completed some of the scoping problems, it's time to tackle the final project. 1 00:06.980 --> 00:13.910 This final project is a little bit special because now, I think you've got enough experience and enough 2 00:13.910 --> 00:20.210 skills under your belt to actually create this project entirely from scratch by yourself. 3 00:20.210 --> 00:22.400 So you're flying solo now. 4 00:22.610 --> 00:29.090 Now, the first thing I want you to do is to play this game quite a few times, actually, just so that 5 00:29.090 --> 00:31.880 you get a good idea of how it works. 6 00:32.000 --> 00:38.460 Now the first thing it tells us is "Welcome'" and then it tells us "It's thinking of a number between 7 00:38.460 --> 00:41.540 1 and 100", and then we get to choose a difficulty. 8 00:41.540 --> 00:43.310 So I'm going to choose hard. 9 00:43.700 --> 00:49.820 Now it tells me that I have 5 attempts to guess the number, and I'm going to make a guess. 10 00:50.090 --> 00:53.030 Now it tells me that 50 is too high. 11 00:53.030 --> 00:54.740 It's not the number that it was thinking, 12 00:54.740 --> 00:59.400 and I have to guess again. And notice how I started out with 5 attempts, 13 00:59.400 --> 01:03.750 I'm now down to 4 attempts, so let's try 25. 14 01:03.750 --> 01:07.260 So 25 is too low, but 50 is too high. 15 01:07.260 --> 01:10.080 So that means the number is somewhere in between there. 16 01:10.080 --> 01:13.170 Let's try 30, Again, 17 01:13.170 --> 01:13.980 Too low. 18 01:14.100 --> 01:16.230 Let's try 40, Too high. 19 01:16.230 --> 01:22.980 Maybe it's 45, but I only have one attempt left because I went for the hard level and as expected, 20 01:22.980 --> 01:28.210 I didn't manage to get the right number and I've now run out of guesses, so I've lost. 21 01:28.330 --> 01:32.560 If we run again, we can try playing this on an easy level. 22 01:33.550 --> 01:37.960 On an easy level, we get 10 attempts instead of 5. 23 01:38.050 --> 01:40.930 That gives us a little bit of extra opportunity. 24 01:40.930 --> 01:42.670 So let's try 50. 25 01:42.670 --> 01:47.500 50 is too high, 25 is too high, 10, 10 is too low. 26 01:47.500 --> 01:49.780 So it's between 10 and 25. 27 01:49.780 --> 01:51.820 So let's try 15. 28 01:51.850 --> 01:57.550 Now, if 15 is too high but ten is too low, then we're pretty close to the answer. 29 01:57.670 --> 02:00.250 It's now between 12 and 15. 30 02:00.250 --> 02:02.830 Let's try 13, 14, 31 02:02.830 --> 02:03.610 there we go. 32 02:03.610 --> 02:11.170 The actual answer that it had in mind was 14, and I had four attempts remaining to get the final answer, 33 02:11.170 --> 02:13.510 and I managed to get it at the end. 34 02:14.380 --> 02:21.850 Play through this game at least three, or four times on the different levels, and remember that the easy 35 02:21.850 --> 02:29.950 level has 5 goes, the hard level the user gets 10 goes at guessing the number, and look at 36 02:29.950 --> 02:33.250 how the code works and how it's functioning. 37 02:33.250 --> 02:36.490 And then I want you to break down this problem. 38 02:36.490 --> 02:37.960 Write a TOD list. 39 02:37.960 --> 02:43.130 Create your own list of tasks that you need to solve and start with the simplest one. 40 02:43.190 --> 02:47.240 And once you've tackled that, start putting in some comments into your code. 41 02:47.240 --> 02:51.800 Write down the functionality your program needs, and then write the code. 42 02:51.800 --> 02:59.060 And then test out your code and keep going until you've tested it and made sure that it works in all 43 02:59.060 --> 03:00.290 situations. 44 03:00.770 --> 03:04.580 So this final project has no starting code. 45 03:04.580 --> 03:08.750 I'm not going to give you any comments or TODOs to start off with. 46 03:08.840 --> 03:15.080 I want you to try and tackle this entire project by yourself, and the only thing I'm going to give 47 03:15.080 --> 03:19.430 you is this link so that you can try out the final project. 48 03:19.430 --> 03:22.970 And I know that there's a lot of ways that you can cheat, but don't do it, 49 03:23.000 --> 03:24.560 have faith in yourself. 50 03:24.560 --> 03:28.970 If you tackle this for an hour, I'm pretty sure you're going to get there in the end. 51 03:29.000 --> 03:35.970 You have free reign on the styling or the wording, whatever it is you want it to say, but it has to 52 03:35.970 --> 03:37.890 have the same functionality. 53 03:37.920 --> 03:43.170 Now this also means that if you want to get some ASCII art of your own, then you can head over to this 54 03:43.170 --> 03:48.420 website, which I'll link to in the course resources and just type the name of your game. 55 03:48.420 --> 03:58.560 So maybe it'll be, "Guess The Number", and you can change the font that you want for it. 56 03:58.560 --> 04:05.850 Maybe something a little bit Isometric, or maybe Ogre, or maybe Train, whatever it is you want. 57 04:05.850 --> 04:11.160 And then once you're happy with the font, you can select and copy everything that's on there, 58 04:11.160 --> 04:17.700 and then inside your project, you can create a new file called art.py, and then create a new variable 59 04:17.700 --> 04:22.380 and set it equal to the design that you've got in mind. 60 04:22.380 --> 04:27.430 Now, in order for it to look right, you actually have to create this as a docstring. 61 04:27.430 --> 04:34.240 So three quotation marks to begin with, and then three quotation marks to end. 62 04:34.240 --> 04:39.670 And then just make sure you have enough horizontal space to display the whole thing in one go, instead 63 04:39.670 --> 04:40.810 of it being truncated 64 04:40.810 --> 04:44.740 when you have a little bit of space, and you should be able to see the actual design. 65 04:45.490 --> 04:52.660 Pause the video now and create this number guessing game by yourself as the final project.
