* The user should receive feedback immediately after each guess | |
about whether their guess appears in the computers word. | |
* After each round, you should also display to the user the | |
partially guessed word so far, as well as letters that the | |
user has not yet guessed. | |

Worked for me, note that this was written in python2, you might want to adjust the format for a few lines so that it runs on python 3.
